    Yes it is The hypotenuse is 10 cms long.

    Because its a right angled triangle (90 angle) the hypotenuse will be 10 cms long - it will obey the Pythagoras theorem:-

    10^2 = 8^2 + 6^2

    There is only one right angled triangle with these measurements but there are many of them which have sides in same ratio

    for example

    3, 4 and 5

    9,12 and 15

    12, 16 and 20 and so on ...
