If it looks like this:

A -------------------- B
|                            |
|                            |
|                            |
C -------------------- D

Then BC is the hypotenuse of a right triangle with sides 16 and 30. Using the Pythagorean Theorem you can solve for the length of the hypotenuse:

[tex]h^2 = 16^2 + 30^[/tex]
[tex]h= \sqrt{256+900} [/tex]
[tex]h =34[/tex]
