Answer:

option 1

Step-by-step explanation:

I am not sure, what your are asking about.

in your text you define the length of DF (20), but the answer options (only 2 visible) also specify DF but differently.

so ... ?

when you said DF=20, did you actually mean DE ?

under that assumption

DE = 20 = Hypotenuse of the right-angled triangle (the opposite side of the 90 degree angle).

EF = 17

based on Pythagoras

c² = a² + b²

we have here now

20² = 17² + DF²

400 = 289 + DF²

DF² = 400 - 289 = 111

DF = sqrt(111)
