Answer:
10 cm
Explanation:
A vertical cross section through the axis of the cylinder is a rectangle. This one has a width equal to the diameter, so 6 cm, and a height o 8 cm.
The Pythagorean theorem can be used to find the length of the diagonal (c).
c² = 6² + 8²
c² = 36 +64 = 100
c = √100 = 10
The length of the diagonal (c) is 10 cm.
