Answer:

16

Step-by-step explanation:

Using pythagorean theorem, a^2+b^2=c^2, you can substitute the legs in. 8^2+8sqrt3^2=c^2. C is the hypotenuse. you get 64+64sqrt9=c^2. This simplifies to 64+64(3)=c^2. This equals 256=c^2. Sqrt of 256 is 16, which is C.

Step-by-step explanation:

using a^2 = b^2+c^2

=> a^2 = 8^2 + 8×root3

=> a^2 = 64 + 64×3

=> a^2 = 64 + 192 = 256

=> a = 16
