As a hint, you should solve for the third side of that small triangle (Use Pythagorean Theorem)
if its a square, the sides will be the same, if its a rectangle, theyll be different

like this then?
imnotsmartlol:
x² + 13² = 15.26²
x² = 232.86 - 169
x = √63.87
x = 8
imnotsmartlol:
im pretty sure its that
imnotsmartlol:
so it would be a rectangle then
dude:
