Answer:
This would not be 20
Step-by-step explanation:
This question can be thought as a Pythagoras question.
By subtracting 2cm from both the left side ZW, and the right side YX, you will have a right angled triangle WYX (or ZYX, since after subtracting 2cm Z and W are essentially the same point)
I have attached a crude drawing of what the triangle is looking like, we are looking for the unknown value marked with the ?
Pythagoras states that [tex]a^{2} +b^{2} =c^{2}[/tex]
We are given the lengths 2cm and 20cm, which can be thought of as a (or b) and c. Substitute in the values 2 and 20 and solve for the unknown
