#P=24cm#

Explanation:

In this right-angled triangle you only have the length of #2# sides.

You need the third side and then you can add them together to find the perimeter.

Use Pythagoras' Theorem to find the length of the hypotenuse.

#c^2=a^2 +b^2#

#c^2 = 6^2 +8^2#

#c^2 = 36+64#

#c^2 = 100#

#c = sqrt100 = 10#

For the perimeter: #P= 6+8+10 = 24cm#
