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

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.

anonymous · Answer

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. :)
