We can use Pythagorean theorem.
We are given the medians. Let the halved length of AB and BC be x and y respectively.
From the length of AC,
→ AC²=(2x)²+(2y)²
→ 25=4x²+4y² ··· (A)
From the length of AD,
→ AD²=(2x)²+y²
→ 45/4=4x²+y² ··· (B)
From the length of CE,
→ CE²=x²+(2y)²
→ CE²=x²+4y² ··· (C)
EDIT: We can skip equation solving and find CE directly.
In this method, I will find the sum of (B)+(C).
(From B+C,) AD²+CE²=5x²+5y²
(From A,) AD²+CE²=125/4
(From B,) 45/4+CE²=125/4
→ CE²=60/4=15
Lengths are always positive. So, length CE is √15.
