Answer:

4 ft

Explanation:

Since the shape is a square, the bottom part of the orange triangle would be equal to half of a side or 6/2, 3. Now, we can use the pythagorean theorem to find the height:

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

We are already given the hypotenuse or c as 5. We are also given a leg or a, as 3. We can plug those numbers in:

3^2 + b^2 = 5^2

9 + b^2 = 25

b^2 = 16

b = 4 ft
