Greetings!

Answer:

[tex]\sqrt{85}  or 9.22[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

You need to remember the following equation:

[tex]a^{2} + b^{2} = c^{2}[/tex]

Where a and b is the lengths of the two sides and c is the hypotenuse.

So simply plug these values into this:

[tex]6^{2} + 7^{2} = h^{2}[/tex]

36 + 49 = h^2

36 + 49 = 85

So the hypotenuse is the square root of 85:

[tex]\sqrt{85}  = 9.22[/tex]


Hope this helps!
