Answer:

Exercise 1:

base [b]=8cm

perpendicular [p]=6cm

hypotenuse [h]=?

By using Pythagoras law

h²=p²+b²

h²=6²+8²

h=√100

h=10cm

So another side's length is 10cm

Exercise 2:

base [b]=6m

perpendicular [p]=bm

hypotenuse [h]=8m

By using Pythagoras law

h²=p²+b²

8²=b²+6²

b²=8²-6²

b=√28=2√7 0r 5.29 or 5.3

So height of kite is√28or 2√7 0r 5.29 or 5.3 m
