Answer:

36.7 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Measurements for the sides of the canal is given as: 40 ft. and 16 ft.

You solve the above question using Pythagoras Theorem

The distance across the canal is calculated as:

√(40² - 16²)

= √(1344)

= 36.66060556 ft

Approximately = 36.7 ft

Therefore, the distance x across the canal = 36.7 ft
