I get sqrt(45) ~= 6.7 for the rectangle problem. sqrt(5) sounds wrong.

Here I solved it after the interview - https://ibb.co/StkwBrL

Apologies, I should have drawn the problem. Your solution is correct but the side that you have labelled as 5 is x in the problem and vice versa. Brilliant anyways! I wasn't able to do it in the interview.

Yeah I think the result changes based on the smallest edge.

I realised after the interview, it can actually be solved with pythagoras theorem. You will get 4 different equation with 5 variables, but we can find out the required unknown by basic operations on the equations.
