    Remember, in any right triangle, if the legs of the triangle are lengths a and b and the hytpotonuse is legnth c then

    a²+b²=c²

    so, given tat the legs are 6 and 8

    6²+8²=c²

    36+64=c²

    100=c²

    sqrt both sides

    10=c

    the hytponuse is 10 units

    A^2 + B^2 = C^2

    6^2 + 8^2 = C^2

    36 + 64 = C^2

    100 = C^2

    10 = C

    The hypotenuse is 10 units long.
