Question

Two chimneys 20 m and 15 m high stand upright in a factory. If their bases are 12 m apart, find the distance between their tops.​

Answer 1

Answer:

Two poles 18m and. 13 m high stand upright in a playground . If their feet are 12 m apart find the distance between their top

Answer 2

In the figure, we can see the difference in height is (20-15) m =5 m

The distance between the feet is 12 m

We can apply Pythagoras theorem to find the distance between their tops:

d= √{(5)²+(12)²}

=13 m
