Let H_D  = proj_⊥ (D)_(/AB)   Let H_C  = proj_⊥ (C)_(/AB)   AH_D  = ADcos30° = 7×((√3)/2) = ((7(√3))/2)  BH_C  = BCcos30° = 4×((√3)/2) = 2(√3)  DH_D ^2  = AD^2 −AH_D ^2  = 49−((49×3)/4) = ((49)/4)  ⇒ DH_D  = (7/2)  CH_C ^2  = BC^2 −BH_C ^2  = 16−4×3 = 4  ⇒ CH_C  = 2  E is the point such CED^(�)  = 90°  DE = DH_D −CH_C  = (7/2)−2 = (3/2)  CE^2  = CD^2 −DE^2  = 25−(9/4) = ((91)/4)  ⇒ CE = ((√(91))/2)  AB = AH_D +CE+BH_C  = ((7(√3))/2)+((√(91))/2)+2(√3)  AB = ((11(√3)+(√(91)))/2)
