Complete Question
The length of the guy wire supporting a cell tower is 120 m. The guy wire is anchored to the ground at a distance of 80 m from the base of the tower to the nearest hundredth of a meter how tall is the tower?
Answer:
89.44m
Step-by-step explanation:
We solve this question using the Pythagoras Theorem
This is given as:
Hypotenuse² = Opposite ² + Adjacent ²
Hypotenuse = Length of the guy wire = 120m
Adjacent = Distance from the base of the tower = 80m
Opposite = Height of the building = x
Hence:
120² = x² + 80²
Collect like terms
x² = 120² - 80²
x = √120² - 80²
x = √(8000)
x = 89.4427191 m
Approximately the height of the tower is = 89.44m

Answer: The value of a in the polynomial is 16
Answer:
The value of x =2 and y= 2, because they are congruent and 2+2=4
Answer:
x = 25
Step-by-step explanation:
<em>Step 1: Identify the similar triangles</em>
Triangle DQC and triangle DBR are similar
<em>Step 2: Identify the parallel lines</em>
QC is parallel to BR
<em>Step 3: Find x</em>
DQ/QB = DC/CR
40/24 = x/15
x = 25
