Answer:
third side = 6
Explanation:
Using Pythagoras' identity in the right triangle.
The square on the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares on the other 2 sides.
let the third side be x , then
x² + 8² = 10²
x² + 64 = 100 ( subtract 64 from both sides )
x² = 36 ( take the square root of both sides )
x =
= 6
