Problem Analysis:

  • The image shows a right-angled triangle.
  • The hypotenuse length is 10.
  • One leg length is 8.
  • The length of the other leg is unknown (marked with '?').

Solution:

We can use the Pythagorean theorem, which states that in a right-angled triangle, the square of the hypotenuse (c) is equal to the sum of the squares of the other two sides (a and b):

\[ a^2 + b^2 = c^2 \]

Let 'a' be the unknown leg, 'b' be the known leg (8), and 'c' be the hypotenuse (10).

  1. Substitute the known values into the Pythagorean theorem:
  2. \[ a^2 + 8^2 = 10^2 \]

  3. Calculate the squares:
  4. \[ a^2 + 64 = 100 \]

  5. Isolate a^2 by subtracting 64 from both sides:
  6. \[ a^2 = 100 - 64 \]

    \[ a^2 = 36 \]

  7. Find 'a' by taking the square root of both sides:
  8. \[ a = \sqrt{36} \]

    \[ a = 6 \]

    Final Answer:

    The length of the unknown leg is 6.
