Use pythagoras formula for triangle

let orange = x, lemon = y

2x = 1 + 1 => 2x = 2 => x = 1

3y = x + 2 => 3y = 1 + 2 => 3y = 3 => y = 1

Now orange = 1, lemon = 1

8x => 8
6y => 6

Now use pythagoras formula for triangle:

8 * 8 + 6 * 6 = ? * ?
64 + 36 = ? * ?
100 = ? * ?
? = 10

Correct answer = 10
