Answer:

The square root of 208 cm or approximately 14.4 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

There is formula called the Pythagorean theorem and it is a^2 + b^2 = c^2

Where a is equal to height and b is equal to the base.

To put the numbers into the formula:

12^2 + 8^2 = c^2

144 + 64 = c^2

208 = c^2

sqrt (208) cm = c
