Answer:
c=10 units
Step-by-step explanation:
The Pythagorean Theorem states that a^2+b^2=c^2.
This means that the sides are represented by a^2+b^2. In order to find the hypotenuse in this problem, we substitute a and b for 6 and 8.
6^2+8^2=c^2
we do what it shows us and get:
36+64=c^2
from there, we add the left side altogether then square each side to get rid of the root.
100=c^2
√100=√c^2
and we get c = 10 units.
