Answer:

17.32 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

We realize the cable is the hypotenuse and then that height would be the new side, the measurement would not change once hypotenuse is found.

60 deg is the lower angle as it meets the ground base.

Sin (60) = 0.8660254038 x 20 = 17.32m

0.86 reduction = a  

We use Sin (60) = a  a x 20 to find the pole as above.

We use Tan (60) x base to find 20m to check hypotenuse if base was given = length of floor x tan(60) etc.

yaroslaw [1]
It's 15 minutes, because it takes 1 hour for a television and a cable box, so you take 2 hours from the 4 hours, from the 2 televisions and the 2 cable boxes, so now you got 2 hours left and 8 cable boxes, so 2 hours is 120 minutes, and 8÷120=15
