Answer:
22 1/4 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
you can sketch this problem to be a right triangle with a hypotenuse of 24 feet and one leg of 9 feet (17 - 8).
use Pythagorean Theorem to find the base side, which represents the distance between the posts
a² + 9² = 24²
a² + 81 = 576
a² = 576 - 81
a² = 495
a = 
a =
·
= 3
, which is approx 22.25
24 4th power and 4 needs to be small right hand corner
