Question

Two poles of heights 6m and 11m stand on a plane ground. If the distance

between the feet of the poles is 12m. Find the distance between their tops.​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

HEY MATE ......

$given \: two \: poles \: ab = 11m \: and \: cd = 6m \: \\ \\ distance \: between \: both \: poles \: bd \: = 12m \: \\ \\ then \: create \: a \: line \: segment \: ce \: parallel \: to \: line \: bd \: \\ \\ so \: ae = ab \: - cd \: = 11 - 5 = 6m \\ \\ in \: right \: angled \: triangle \: aec \: ({ac}^{2} ) = ({ae}^{2} ) + ({ae}^{2} ) = {12}^{2} + {5}^{2} = 144 + 25 = 169 \\ \\ ac = 13m \: \\ \\ so \: the \: distance \: between \: their \: tops \: is13m$
