The closest distance up the tree where the wire reaches is 17.93 foot.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Given-

Length of the wire, L = 12 foot

angle, Ф= 48°

Distance upto which the wire reaches the tree, x = ?

We know,

cos Ф = base/ hypotenuse

cos 48° = 12/ x

0.669 = 12/x

x = 17.93 foot

Therefore, the closest distance up the tree where the wire reaches is 17.93 foot.

A piling for a high-rise building is pushed by two bulldozers at exactly the same time. One bulldozer exerts a force of 1250 pou
Masja [62]
The forces result in a right triangle. To obtain the resultant force, one can simply use the Pythagorean theorem. 1250 lbf and 2650 lbf both act as the legs of the triangle. Obtaining the hypotenuse via the theorem would yield the resultant force. This is done below:

c^2 = a^2 + b^2
c^2 = (1250)^2 + (2650)^2
c = 2930.017 lbf

Therefore, the magnitude of the resultant force is approximately equal to 2930 lbf.
