Answer:

Height of flagpole before it fell = 5.15 m

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Height of remain pole (p) = 1.7 m

Distance from base (b) = 3 m

Find:

Height of flagpole before it fell

Computation:

Using Pythagorean theorem

H = √ p² + b

Length of broken part = √ 1.7² + 3²

Length of broken part = √ 2.89 + 9

Length of broken part = √ 11.89

Length of broken part = 3.45 (Approx)

Height of flagpole before it fell = Length of broken part + Height of remain pole

Height of flagpole before it fell = 3.45 + 1.7

Height of flagpole before it fell = 5.15 m

Answer:

x = 40.

Step-by-step explanation:

The corresponding sides are in the same proportion so:

45/ 27 = 30/18 = x/24

Consider the last 2 fractions:

30/18 = x/24

5/3 = x/24           Cross multiply:

3x = 5 * 24

x =  120 / 3

x  = 40.
