Well im going to guess that since they told you its a square, all the outer edges should be equal. Which means the cross sections should also be equal as well.

royalranger · Answer

Since BD is 10, and E is the halfway point. BE should equal 5. Since BE is the same distance as AE, AE should equal 5.

I have not taken geometry in a very long time, so its just my guess.
