    Wink Findng Lengths of Pyramid Edge

    Can someone give me a hint on how to solve? Thanks...

    A pyramid ABCDE has a rectangular base ABCD. Calculate the possible lengths of edge EC.



    Thanks!

    Thanks!
    It looks as if:
    Dimension AB = CD = 35m
    Dimension BC = AD = 18m
    Dimension AE = 23m

    What does the \text 38' and \text 44' mean?
    It looks as if they were meant to be angles.

    If angle ABE is 0deg38' and angle EBC is 0deg44min
    then it is solvable.


    Need a little more info.
    Could you clarify the assumptions?
