Expert Solution

Step 1

Given data:

The given longest side is H=27 yd.

The other side of the triangle is b=23 yd.

The expression for the Pythagoras theorem is,

$b^{2} + {(A B)}^{2} = H^{2}$

Substitute the given values in the above expression.

$\begin{array}{rcl} {(23 yd)}^{2} + {(A B)}^{2} & = & {(27 yd)}^{2} \\ {(A B)}^{2} & = & (729 - 529) {yd}^{2} \\ {(A B)}^{2} & = & 200 {yd}^{2} \\ A B & = & 14.142 yd \\ \approx & 14 yd \end{array}$
