The reasonable estimate for the length of side DE is 3 units
Find the diagram of the question attached. The given triangle ABC and BDE are similar triangles.
Using the similarity theorem of a triangle, this is expressed as:
AC = DE
Using the pythagoras theorem to get the length of AC:
AB^2 = AC^2 + BC^2
5^2 + AC^2 + 4^2
AC^2 = 25 - 16
AC^2 = 9
AC= 3
Since AC = DE, hence the reasonable estimate for the length of side DE is 3 units
