Answer:
The distance between the posts is feet.
Step-by-step explanation:
In the attached figure, let DB and AC be the posts and let AD be the wire attached to the top of the posts.
BC is the distance between the posts and we need to find BC.
Note that BC = DE
Also, EC = DB = 8m and AE = AC - EC = 17 - 8 = 9 m.
Now, in the right triangle ADE,
= (24+9) (24-9)
= 33(15)
= (3 × 11) × (3 × 5)
Since DE = BC,
Hence, the distance between the posts is feet.
