Hi there!


\large\boxed{\text{ D. } √(136)}

Use the Pythagorean theorem to find the length of the line.

If we draw an imaginary right triangle using the given line as the hypotenuse, we can derive a height of 6 units and a length of 10 units.

Use the Pythagorean theorem equation:

c² = a² + b²

Plug in the height and length:

c² = 6² + 10²

Simplify:

c² = 36 + 100

c² = 136

Take the square root of both sides:

c = √136. The correct answer is D.
