    b ≈ 7.54 cm

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Pythagorean Theorem

    a² + b² = c²

    a and b are the sides and c is the hypotenuse

    hypotenuse is 11 cm

    a side is 8 cm

    so

    8² + b² = 11²

    64 + b² = 121

    -64 - 64

    b² = 57

    √b² = √57

    b ≈ 7.54 cm (use ≈ because its rounded so its not exact)
