    Answer:use Pythagorean theorem to sole this. The problem gives you the hypotenuse and one side, so you need to find the other side.

    Step-by-step explanation: Use

    a^2 + b^2 = c^2.

    80^2 + b^2 = 100^2

    6400 + b^2 = 10000

    -6400. - 6400

    b^2 = 3600

    Square root each side of the equation

    b = 60
