Answer: 9 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

A line between two opposite corners splits the floor into two right angled triangles, therefore we can use Pythagoras’ Theorem which is:

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

where c is the hypotenuse, and a and b are the other two sides.

Hypotenuse in this question is 15 metres while one side is 12 metres. The length will now be:

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

12^2 + b^2 = 15^2

b^2 = 15^2 - 12^2

b^2 = 225 - 144

b^2 = 81

b = ✓81

b = 9m

The length of the storage unit is 9m

The answer should be AC+BC

We can answer this by applying the rule called "Greater angle, greater side". This is where in any triangle, the opposite side of the larger angle is also longer.

So in this question, first we have to find the largest 2 angles, which is ∠ABC and ∠BAC with measures of 120° and 35° respectively. Therefore, from the diagram, the opposite sides of the angles are AC and BC. 

Therefore, the answer should be AC+BC.
