10 inches is the answer
This question can be solved with the pythagorean theorem.

The equation that we will be using is:

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

We know the first two sides (a and b)

So far we have:

5^2 + 5^2 = c^2

Lets simplify what we have so far:

25 + 25 = c^2

Simplify again

50 = c^2 

Now take the square root or both sides:

~7 = c

The answer comes out to 7
