Answer: The side highlighted is 6.3 units long

Explanation:

You can use Pythagorean therum to solve this problem

a² + b² = c²

We already know the length of two of the sides, a and b. So we will replace those variables with the given values

2² + 6² = c²

And now we solve

2² + 6² = c²

4 + 36 = c²

c² = 40

√40 = 6.3
