Answer:
The support post positioned 23 feet far from the front of the house
Step-by-step explanation:
According to Pythagoras Theorem
(Hypotenuse)² = (Base)² + ( Perpendicular)²
We need to find Base so arranging the equation will give us
(Base)² = (Hypotenuse)² - ( Perpendicular)²
Taking under root on both sides
Base = √(Hypotenuse)² - ( Perpendicular)²
Base = √ (625 - 100)
Base = √525
Base = 23 feet
