Answer:

DC = 17

Explanations:

From the diagram shown:

DE is symmetrical to BE

DE = BE

AD = 11

BC = 17

ADE and BAE are congruent triangles because :

DE is congruent to BE and

AE is shared by both.

Also angle E is a right angle in both

This is called the SIde-Angle -Side Property (SAS)

Therefore, BC = DC = 17
