Melanie is making a piece of jewelry that is in the shape of a right triangle. The two shorter sides of the piece of jewelry are 6 mm and 8 mm. Find the perimeter of the piece of jewelry. 18 mm 24 mm 22 mm 20 mm
using Pythagoras’ theorem a2 + b2 = c2 you can find out the third (longest) side. (6x6) + (8x8) = 100 (the square root of 100 is 10) so ur final sum is 6+8+10 = 24 mm
