ANSWER
D. 25 feet
EXPLANATION
The height of the wall,h, the taut wire and the distance from the base of the pole to the point on the ground, formed a right triangle.
According to the Pythagoras Theorem, the sum of the length of the squares of the two shorter legs equals the square of the hypotenuse.
Let the hypotenuse ( the length of the ) taught wire be,l.
Then

Step-by-step explanation:
C
6 x 8 = 32
7 x 3 = 21
32 - 21 = 27
Answer:
x=21
Step-by-step explanation:
2x - 7 = 35
+7 +7

x = 21
The answer is 21, hope this helps.
Answer:
541.7 (m2)
Step-by-step explanation:
Applying the sine theorem:
WV/sin(X) = XV/sin(W)
=> WV = XV*sin(X)/sin(W) = 37*sin(50)/sin(63) = 31.81
Angle V = 180 - X - W = 180 - 50 - 63 = 67
Denote WH is a height of the triangle VWX, H lies on XV
=> WH = WV*sin(V) = 31.81*sin(67) = 29.28
=> Area of triangle VWX is calculated by:
S = side*height/2 = XV*WH/2 = 37*29.28/2 = 541.7 (m2)
