Answer:
BE = 49 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
Use Pythagorean theorem
(hypotenuse)² = (base)² + (leg)²
ΔDEF,
DE² + EF² = FD²
DE² + 63² = 65²
DE² + 3969 = 4225
DE² = 4225 - 3969
DE² = 256
DE = √256 = √(16*16)
DE = 16 cm
ΔCBD,
BC² + BD² = CD²
56² +BD² = 65²
3136 + BD² = 4225
BD² = 4225 - 3136
BD² = 1089
BD = √1089 = √(33*33)
BD = 33 cm
BE = BD + DE
= 33 + 16
BE = 49 cm
