To calculate this you can use the Pythagorean Theorem, so if one pole is the height, the distance from top of one to bottom of other is hypotenuse, you can solve for the base by taking the square root of (20^2 - 12^2) or 16 which is the answer.

What is the length of AC¯¯¯¯¯ ?
insens350 [35]

Answer:

AC = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

y is the dimension of the horizontal segment (see the attached image).

The hypotenuses are the same dimension, so:

(x+4)^2=(x/2)^2+y^2

(3x-8)^2=(x/2)^2+y^2

So,

(x+4)^2 = (3x-8)^2

x+4 = 3x-8

x-3x = -8-4

-2x = -12

x = 6

And x is the dimension of the segment AC.
