Answer:

10.2 centimeters

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following question:

A = 10cm
B = 2cm

In order to find the answer, we will use the Pythagorean theorem.

[tex]c=\sqrt{(a^2+b^2)}[/tex]
[tex]c=\sqrt{10^2+2^2}[/tex]
[tex]10^2=10\times10=100[/tex]
[tex]2^2=2\times2=4[/tex]
[tex]c=\sqrt{100+4}[/tex]
[tex]100+4=104[/tex]
[tex]\sqrt{104}[/tex]
[tex]\sqrt{104}=10.198039[/tex]
Round to the nearest tenth:
[tex]10.198039[/tex]
[tex]9>5[/tex]
[tex]10.2cm[/tex]

Your answer is "10.2 centimeters."

Hope this helps.
