Answer:

[tex]h\approx8.49[/tex]

Explanation: We have a right triangle with two legs that are each 6ft in length, we need to find the hypotenuse of this right triangle, It is done as follows with Pythagorean theorem:

[tex]\begin{gathered} a^2+b^2=c^2^{} \\ \therefore\rightarrow \\ 6^2+6^2=h^2\rightarrow h=\sqrt[]{6^2+6^2}=\sqrt[]{72}\approx8.49 \\ \therefore\rightarrow \\ h=8.49 \end{gathered}[/tex]

Therefore again, the hypotenuse is h = 8.49
