Answer:

The hypotenuse is 10 units

Step-by-step explanation:

Considering the right angle triangle, we apply pythagora's theorem to determine the hypotenuse;

[tex]a^{2} +b^{2}=c^{2}[/tex]

Where a and b are the lengths of the two shorter sides.

In this case we have;

[tex]8^{2}+6^{2} =c^{2} \\100=c^{2}\\ c=10[/tex]

Answer:

Choice D is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have given the figure of the triangle.

Two sides of triangle are given but one side is missing we have to find it.

As we know that, in right angled triangle,

(hypotenuse)² = base²+perpendicular²

We have to find the hypotenuse?

Let x =hypotenuse

Putting the values we get,

x² = (8)²+(6)²

x² = 64 +36

x² = 100

x = 10 is the hypotenuse of the triangle.
