Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The lights and pole form a right triangle. The question gives the hypotenuse as 5 and one side length as 4.

Use the Pythagorean theorem: $a^2+b^2=c^2$ .

Plug in what you are given: $4^2+b^2=5^2$

$16+b^2=25$

$b^2=9$

b = 3

Or you could recognize that it was a pythagorean triple: 3, 4, 5
