The exercise is solved by applying the Pythagorean Theorem:

h^2= a^2 + b^2 ⇒ h= √(a^2 + b^2)

h: hypotenuse (the opposite side of the right angle and the longest side of the triangle).

a and b: legs (the sides that form the right angle).

Let's proceed to find it the length QR by applying the Pythagorean equation:

h^2= a^2 + b^2

h= QR=√ ((8√3)² + 8²)

QR=16

The answer is: The length QR is 16
