You need both leg lengths to compute the hypotenuse, or an angle (other than the 90°) and a leg length. So there is not enough information to answer.

If both of the legs are 4 cm, then, to get the answer, you must use the Pythagorean Theorem.(A squared+B squared=C squared) 4 cmX4 cm=16cm+4 cmX4 cm=32 cm. The square root of 32=5.6568542. Therefore, the answer, assuming that you meant both of the legs were 4 cm, is 5.6568542.
