Answer:

One possible side length could be a length of 6.7.

Explanation:

We can assume that the hypotenuse of the triangle is 9 and one side length is 6. We can find the third side length using the pythagorean theorem [ a² + b² = c² ]. Use what we are given and solve for b.

6² + b² = 9²

36 + b² = 81

b² = 45

b ≈ 6.7

Best of Luck!
