Answer: 14.73
Step-by-step explanation:
The given triangle is a right angle triangle.
EF^2 + DF^2 = ED^2
The hypotenuse is |ED| while the two shorter legs are |EF| and |DF|.
We can then apply the Pythagoras Theorem to find the length of EF.
(EF)^2 + (DF)^2 = (ED)^2
(EF)^2 + (12)^2 = (19)^2
(EF)^2 + 144 = 361
(EF)^2 = 361 - 144
(EF)^2 = 217
EF = 14.73
