Question

A pole 32m high broke at a point 7m above the ground, but didn't separate. At what distance is the top of the pole from its bottom?

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

hypotenuse = (32-7)m = 25 m

Perpendicular = 7 m

Base = ?

h² = b² + p²

or 25² = b² + 7²

or b² = 25² - 7² = 576 = (24)²

or b = 24

distance of top of the pole from its bottom = 24 m
