me plot the factors on a graph. use z^2=x^2+y^2 formula to calculate the long facet z of the triangle, which could be the gap between the two factors. x = the horizontal distance between the two factors , 2+8 =10, count quantity the squares. y = the vertical distance between the two factors, 8-5 = 3 plug interior the numbers, take the sq. root of the two facet and additionally you get that answer
