Question

. The height of a poleis 8cm. Find the length of a rope tied with its top from a point on the ground at a
distance of 6m from its bottom.please give the answer with full explanation... i will mark as brainliest​

Answer 1

Answer:

length of pole is 10

Step-by-step explanation:

h^2=p^2+b^2=8^2+6^2=64+36=100

h=10

Answer 2

10 cm

Let the set-up given above be as shown in the figure attached.

Now, 'A' is the top of the pole and 'B' is its base.

Also, AB perpendicular on the ground.

Let the point on ground to which rope is tied be 'C'.

So, given, BC = 6 cm

Now, we see that we have got a right angled triangle out here and Pythagoras theorem can be applied.

AC² = AB² + BC²

AC² = 8² + 6²

AC² = 64 + 36

AC = √100

AC = 10 cm

Hence, length of rope = 10 cm
