Answer:
If we estimated correctly, our answer will be 45 feet.
Step-by-step explanation:
A wire 30 feet long is stretched from the top of a flagpole to the ground at a point 15 feet from the base of the pole.
The wire is 30 feet long, but it doesn't cover the whole pole, since there is 15 feet left. Add the 30 feet of wire and the 15 feet left together, and your answer is
45 feet.
I hope this helps!
