Answer:
![BE=15\ units](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=BE%3D15%5C%20units)
Step-by-step explanation:
we know that
In a rhombus the diagonals are perpendicular
so
The triangle ABE is a right triangle
see the attached figure to better understand the problem
Applying the Pythagoras Theorem to the right triangle ABE
![AB^2=AE^2+BE^2](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=AB%5E2%3DAE%5E2%2BBE%5E2)
where
AB is the hypotenuse of the right triangle (greater side)
AE and BE are the legs of the right triangle
we have
![AB=17\ units\\AE=8\ units](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=AB%3D17%5C%20units%5C%5CAE%3D8%5C%20units)
substitute
![17^2=8^2+BE^2](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=17%5E2%3D8%5E2%2BBE%5E2)
solve for BE
![289=64+BE^2](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=289%3D64%2BBE%5E2)
![BE^2=289-64](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=BE%5E2%3D289-64)
![BE^2=225](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=BE%5E2%3D225)
![BE=15\ units](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=BE%3D15%5C%20units)
