Answer:

17 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

I used the Pythagorean theorem to answer this question.

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

15^2 + 8^2 = c^2

225 + 64 = c^2

289=c^2

c^2=289

c=√289

c=17 feet

It is given that the density of a certain material 6 pounds per pint.

6 pound per pint  = 5751.66 gram per litre

mart [117]

Answer:

a = √93

a ≈ 9.64

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use the Pythagorean theorem for this: a² + b² = c²

c is given as the hypotenuse, which is the pole with a length of 17 ft

c² is 17²

b is a leg with a height of 14 ft

b² = 14²

We need to find the base leg, a,  distance from the wall to the base of the pole.

Solve:

a² + 14² = 17²

a² + 196 = 289

a² = 93

a = √93
