Question

what is the length of the hypotenuse? if necessary, round to the nearest tenth.
c = □ inches

Explanation:

Step1: Aplicar el Teorema de Pitágoras

$$c^{2}=a^{2}+b^{2}$$
Donde \(a = 8\) e \(b = 6\).

Step2: Sustituir valores

$$c^{2}=8^{2}+6^{2}$$
$$c^{2}=64 + 36$$
$$c^{2}=100$$

Step3: Extraer raíz cuadrada

$$c=\sqrt{100}$$
$$c = 10$$

Answer:

\(10\)
