Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
We can first solve for the face diagonal. That is [tex]\sqrt{(10^2+5^2)}[/tex]. Notice this will form a right triangle with the vertical side. We get that the face diagonal = [tex]\sqrt{125}[/tex]. Now, we can use Pythagorean theorem again to get the straw length:
[tex]s^2 = 9^2+\sqrt{125}^2[/tex] where s = the straw length.
We can solve that s = [tex]\sqrt{206}[/tex]
