Question

two poles of height 7 metre and 12 metre stand on a plane ground if the distance between their feet is 12 find distance between their tops​

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

13 CM BY PYTHAGORAS THEOREM

Answer 2

Answer:

13m

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the height of first tower =12m

height of second tower =5m

the distance between the two tower =12m

then, the length of first tower=(7+5)m the length of second tower. The right triangleABC can be constructed using the length of the two tower.

AB =Base of the two tower =12m

BC=height of the first tower w.r.t second tower AC=distance between the top of the two tower in the form of hypotenuse of ABC

using pythaguras theorem

AC^2=AB^2+BC^2

AC^2=5x5+12x12

AC =square root of (169)

AC =13 metres

Hence the distance between the two tower =13m
