Respuesta :

The answer is 4*\sqrt(2), or 5.7 if rounded to the nearest tenth digit. Notice that this is a right triangle (F is the right angle). The length of FG and FE are both 4 units on the diagram. Therefore, according to the Pythagorean theorem, the length of EG is \sqrt(4^2+4^2)=4*\sqrt(2), which is about 5.7.
