Distance between A and B  

= Distance between C and D  

= sqrt((4 - 1)^2 + (5 - 2)^2)  

= sqrt(3^2 + 3^2)  

= sqrt(2 * 3^2)  

= sqrt(3^2) * sqrt(2)  

= 3sqrt(2)  

Distance between B and C  

= Distance between A and D  

= sqrt((4 - 3)^2 + (5 - 0)^2)  

= sqrt(1^2 + 5^2)  

= sqrt(26)  

Since sqrt(26) is more than 3sqrt(2), the length must be sqrt(26).

Hope this helps you.
