In a right triangle, the length of one leg is 6 units. The length of the other leg is 8 units. What is the length of the hypotenuse (hint: use Pythagorean Theorem)?

[tex]hypotenuse = \sqrt{6^2+8^2}= \sqrt{36+64}= \sqrt{100}=10 \ units [/tex]
Applying the Pythagorean Theorem, a^2 + b^2 = c^2, we can insert the numbers 6^2 + 8^2 = c^2, or 36 + 64 = √100, or 10. So the hypotenuse is 10 units.
