Answer:
The length of the slide is 10 feet.
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the length of the slide you have to use the formula:
a^2 + b^2 = c^2 (^2 means squared)
In this case:
a= 6 and b=8 c= unknown
6 squared (6 times 6) is 36
8 squared (8 times 8) is 64
Add these two numbers to get:
36+64=100
6^2+8^2=100
However, the length of the slide in not 100 feet. In order to find the correct length you must find the square root of 100. Which is 10.
What number times itself equals 100? 10.
The length of the slide in 10 feet.
That's about as much as you can simplify this problem.
I hope this helps! :)
