Hello There!

The length of the hypotenuse is 10.

We know what 2 sides are 6 and 8.

To find the third side we use the formula a^2 + b^2 = c^2

So we multiply 6 by 6 which equals 36 and then multiply 8 by 8 which equals 64.

Next we add 64 and 36 together and we get 100.

Next, we square root 100 and get 10.

10 is the length of the hypotenuse.
