Answer:

1.17

Step-by-step explanation:

(MUCH BETTER!)

From the definition of the sin of an angle, you know:

sin(45°) = AC/AB = 4/AB   ⇒   AB = 4/sin(45°) ≈ 5.6569

sin(63°) = AC/AD = 4/AD   ⇒   AD = 4/sin(63°) ≈ 4.4893

Then the difference AB-AD is:

AB -AD = 5.6569 -4.4893 = 1.1676

AB -AD ≈ 1.17 units

Sorry this took me so long to answer!
