It was a rectangle, divided in half. Each side had a right angle, so I divided that in half, formed a hypotenuse and used the tan rule to find AF...which means I took the half of the rectangle as a square..ok wrong move. How'd u find it?
I took variables for AF = x and the smaller triangle height = y,
Then used 138 = Area of Rectangle + Area of Triangle1 + Area of Triangle 2.
The variables y cancelled out (obviously) and I got x=7 cm.
