Answer:
MARK ME BRAINLIEST.
Given :
OA = 10 m ( electric pole)
∠B = 45°
Let OA be the electric Pole and B be the point on the ground.
Let BA = x cm
In ∆ABO
sin 45° = AO /AB (perpendicular/ hypotenuse)
1 / √ 2 = 10 / x
x = 10 √2
x = 10 × 1.414 (Given √2 = 1.414)
x = 14.14 m
Hence, length of the wire is 14.14 m.
