1. **Problem:** Calculate the length |BE| to 1 decimal place.
2. **Given:** From the diagram, segment EC = 10.67 m, EF = 5.4 m, FC = 9.2 m, and BC = 3.1 m.
3. **Step 1: Understand the shape and points involved.**
- Points B, E, and C form part of the 3D polyline/triangular prism-like shape.
- We want to find the length |BE|.
4. **Step 2: Use the triangle or 3D distance formula.**
- Since E and C are connected, and B to C is known, we can use the Pythagorean theorem or 3D distance formula if coordinates are known.
5. **Step 3: Calculate |BE| using the triangle BEC.**
- We know BC = 3.1 m and EC = 10.67 m.
- Assuming B, E, and C form a right triangle at C, then:
$$|BE| = \sqrt{|BC|^2 + |EC|^2} = \sqrt{3.1^2 + 10.67^2}$$
6. **Step 4: Calculate the value:**
$$|BE| = \sqrt{9.61 + 113.8489} = \sqrt{123.4589} \approx 11.11$$
7. **Answer:**
$$|BE| \approx 11.1 \text{ m (to 1 d.p.)}$$
