Answer: 11.7 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the Pythagorean theorem to find the missing side, [tex]a^2 + b^2 = c^2[/tex]

You are trying to find the hypotenuse, and the two smaller sides are 10 and 6. You can substitute those for a and b to find c:

[tex]6^2 + 10^2 = c^2\\\\36 + 100 = c^2 \\\\136 = c^2\\\\c = \sqrt{136}\\\\c = 11.7[/tex]

The missing side is 11.7 feet after rounding to the nearest tenth.

Answer:

11.7

Step-by-step explanation:

You must use pythagorean theorem. a² + b² = c²

a & b are the two legs.

10² + 6² = c²

Expand the exponents.

100 + 36 = c²

136 = c²

[tex]\sqrt{136}[/tex] = [tex]\sqrt{c}[/tex]

11.7 = c
