Answer:

DU = 34

QU = 30

Explanation:

DU = 34 since the diagonals of a rectangle are congruent, Diagonal QA would be 17 * 2 and so would be Diagonal DU.

QU = 33.045, according to me the base of a triangle;

b =
2โˆš(l^2-h^2), height would be half the length of QD = 8

b = 2
โˆš(17^2 -8^2)

b = 30

Hope this helps!
