<h3>What are trigonometric ratios?</h3>

Trigonometric ratios are defined as the ratio of different sides of a right angle triangle with respect to one angle of the right angled triangle.

Length of the wire = Hypotenuse of the triangle =  X

Base of the triangle = Distance from the bottom of the tower to the point where wire is attached on ground = 20 m

Angle b/w Hypotenuse and Base of triangle = 46°

cos(θ) = Base / Hypotenuse

cos(46) = 20 / X

X = 20 / cos(46)

X = 28.79 m

Hence, the length of the wire is 28.79 m.
