You can put this solution on YOUR website! Now I knwo that this question is from the "IQ" test, anyway i will still solve it:
:
think of two right triangles with sides 6-8-x , x is the longest side and so it is equal to 6^2+8^2 = 36+64 = 100 and then square root it, so it is 10
and we have two, so it is 20
