Question

Pawan is fly fishing in a stream as shown in the figure. The tip of her fishing rod is 1.8 m above the surface of the water and
the fly at the end of the string rests on the water 3.6 m away and 2.4 m from a point directly under the tip of the rod [2]
1.8 m
2.4 m
1.2 m
Assuming that her string (from the tip of her rod to the fly) is taut, how much string does she have out?​

Answer 1

Pawan Has to take out 3 m string out

Step-by-step explanation:

Horizontal Distance = 2.4 m

Vertical Distance = 1.8 m

string  Pawan has to out  = √(2.4)² + (1.8)²

= √(5.76  + 3.24)

= √9

= 3

Answer 2

$\huge{\underline{\underline{\blue{\mathfrak{Answer :}}}}}$

★ Given :

Base = 2.4 m

Perpendicular = 1.9 m

______________________________

★ To Find :

We have to find Hypotenuse

______________________________

★ Solution :

We know that,

$\Large{\boxed{\green{\sf{AC^2 = AB^2 + BC^2}}}}$

(Putting Values)

AC² = (2.4)² + (1.8)²

AC² = 5.76 + 3.24

AC² = 9

AC = √9

AC = √(3)²

AC = 3
