Answer:
The other side is 6cm.
Explanation:
Hypotenuse = 10cm
Base = 8cm
Altitude = x cm ( not given)
Using Pythagoras theorem,( hypotenuse)^2 = ( base) ^2 + (altitude)^2
(altitude)^2 = (hypotenuse)^2 - (base)^2
(x)^2 = (10)^2 - (8)^2
(x)^2 = 100 - 64
(x) ^2 = 36
x = √36
therefore, x =6cm ( altitude)
