Answer:

The other length of the leg is 8 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the answer we have to find what 10 and 6 is squared.  10 x 10 = 100.  

6 x 6 = 36.  Now since we are trying to find the length of the other leg, we will subtract 100 from 36 and we get 64.  Then for the last step, we will figure out what number squared equals 64.  Because 8 x 8 = 64, 8 is our answer.
