Question

Matt drew the diagram shown below and described it as an equilateral triangle with a square inside it. Point D is the midpoint of segment AC.



The geometry teacher pointed out that the triangle cannot be equilateral since side AC is not equal to AB.

Which statement best explains why the measurements are incorrect?

Segment AB ≈ 12 + 17.7 + 12 ≈ 41.7.

Segment AB is 12 + 5 + 12 = 29.

Segment AB is 12 + 12 + 12 = 36.

Segment AB ≈ 12 + 12.5 + 12 ≈ 36.5.
