Answer: B square root of 40
Explanation:
You're trying to find the length of the hypotenuse so you need to use the formula a^2 + b^2 = c^2
c = x
a = 2
b = 6
So 2^2 + 6^2 = x^2
Which equals: 4 + 36 = x^2
This can be simplified into 40 = x^2
And to get x by itself, just take the square root of each side: Square root of 40 = x
