We are given an irregular shape and asked to find the length of the slanted side (?).

Let’s simplify it by placing the shape on a coordinate system:

Bottom-left point: (0, 0)

Bottom-right point: (5, 0) → base = 5m

Top-left point: (0, 7) → height = 7m

Move 2m to the right: (2, 7)

Go down 3m: (2, 4) → this is where the slanted side begins

Now we need the distance between (2, 4) and (5, 0)

Using the distance formula:

genui{“math_block_widget_always_prefetch_v2”:{“content”:”d = \\sqrt{(x_2 – x_1)^2 + (y_2 – y_1)^2}”}}Substitute:

Δx = 5 − 2 = 3

Δy = 0 − 4 = −4

So:

d = \sqrt{3^2 + (-4)^2} = \sqrt{9 + 16} = \sqrt{25} = 5

✅ Final Answer:

The slanted side = 5 meters
