Given :
ABCD is a square whose are sides are of length (x) units in which two segments are down such that AE = 12 units, FC = 9 units and FE = 3units with which AE perpendicular to FE and CF perpendicular to CG.
Construction :
Extend AE to G and Draw CG perpendicular to AG such that CG = 3units and
EG = 9units.
Solution :
In triangle right triangle ACG,
AG = AE + EG
= 12 + 9
= 21 units.
FE = CG = 3units
By Applying Pythagoras theorem,
AC^2 = AG^2 + CG^2
=> AC^2 = (21^2) + (3^2)
=> AC^2 = 441 + 9
=> AC^2 = 450
=> AC = 15√2 units.
Now,
If side of square is of x units, then diagonal is x√2 units by Pythagoras theorem.
=> AC = Diagonal of square = x√2
=> 15√2 = x√2
=> x = 15 units.
Therefore, length of square side is 15 units.
