Okay, so first you will want to try and find the hypotenuse. Do you know how to do that?

OpenStudy (cookie_2046):

Nope sorry i started learning this and i'm stuck on this.

OpenStudy (cookie_2046):

But i think the answer is 10.6 units

It's fine. The formula for finding the hypotenuse is \[a^2 + b^2 = c^2\] That means you have to turn that figure into a triangle.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Once it is a triangle, get the side lengths for both of the sides, not including the side you are trying to get the length for. Then, once you have that you will want to get the units for each side. Once you get those, add them together and you should have your answer. :)
