In the attached figure,
Green line = Ground
Small black line = pole of 10 m
Long black line = pole of 34 m
AB = Difference between poles = distance between their feet = 7 m
========================================
Solution :
By Pythagoras Theorem,
( Length of long pole - Length of small pole )^2 + ( distance between the poles )^2 = ( distance between their tops )^2
→ ( 34 - 10 )^2 + ( AB )^2 = ( AC )^2
→ ( 24 )^2 + ( 7 )^2 = ( AC )^2
→ 576 + 49 = ( AC )^2
→ 625 = ( AC )^2
→ 25 = AC
Hence, Distance between their tops is 25 m .
