Question

sm
15. Two poles of heights 16 m and 10 m
stand vertically upright on a plane
ground. If the distance between their
feet is 8 m, what will be the distance
between their tops?
(A) 12 m
(B) 15 m anw​

Answer 1

Answer:

by Pythagoras theorem :-

h² = p² + b²

h = √p² + b²

h = √6²+8²

h=√ 36 + 64

h =√ 100

h = 10

h here is hypotenuse that is the distance between two top points , p is perpendicular and b is base

answer will be 10m.
