Answer:
2
Explanation:
the theorum you need for this is c^2 = a^2 + b^2, but because you have sides a and c, you need to work backwards.
Start by isolating b^2 in the equation. 
c^2 = a^2 + b^2
 -a^2
c^2 - a^2 = b^2 
b needs to not be squared, so take the square root of both sides

Your answer should be 2.
