Answer:
10 m
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that a circus artist is climbing a 20 m long rope, which is tightly stretched and tied from the top of a vertical pole to the ground. And the angle made by the rope with the ground level is 30°.
We need to find out the height of the pole.
Assumption: Let's say that the height of the pole is x. Also assume a traingle ABC right angled at B.
In ∆ABC; AB is the height of the pole and AC is the 20 m long and the angle made by the rope with the ground level is 30° (∠C = 30°).
In ∆ABC
AB/AC = sin 30°
x/20 = 1/2
x = 20/2
x = 10
Therefore, the height of the pole is 10 m.
