Answer:

The answer to your question is 25 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Data

height = 20 ft

leg = 15 ft

length of the line = ?

To solve this problem use the Pythagorean theorem.

Height = short leg = b

leg = long leg = a

length of the line = hypotenuse = c

- Substitution

         c² = (20)² + (15)²

-Simplification

         c² = 400 + 225

         c² = 625

-Result

         c = \sqrt{625}

         c = 25 ft
