So i got this question wrong..

Both the statements are insufficient.

Taking both.. one fits the 30 60 90 rule..
But if the vertices are chosen differently, the answer is different..

1. AB = 2 - insufficient
2. AC = 2√3 - insufficient

1 & 2: pythagorean theorem
AB²+BC²=CD² => 4+BC2²=12=> BC=2√2
or
AB²+CD²=BC² => 4+12=BC² => BC=4

insufficient - E
