Answer:

6 units

Explanation:

You want the length of the hypotenuse of a right triangle with legs 5 and √11.

Pythagorean theorem

The Pythagorean theorem tells you the relation between the legs a, b, and the hypotenuse c of a right triangle is ...

c² = a² +b²

c² = 5² +(√11)²

c² = 25 +11 = 36

c = √36 = 6

The length of the third side is 6 units.
