So the equation would be “a squared +4 squared=8 squared.” Then you would square 4 which would be 16 and 8 which would be 64. Now the equation is a squared+ 16=64 the rest is basic algebra. Subtract 16 from 64 which is 48. Now you have a squared= 48. You get the square root of both sides so now you have the square root of a is 6.9. I’m pretty sure that’s how you do it. I apologize if I’m incorrect.
Answer
she should find the length from where the tower begins to where the cable touches the ground, and use that number to be leg B, with the hight of the tower being constant and being leg A. then she uses the two numbers to find the hypotenuse of the new triangle. Repeat this with the other 3 cables and you have the answer! (Note: leg A's length will remain constant, but leg B's length will not because it is reliant on how far away the cables contact the ground in relation to the tower.)

there is always a 1 infront of a variable but since x2 has the largest degree it gives it priority over the others so what ever numbe in front of it is the leading coefficient
The slope of the line is “rise over run.” That’s the vertical change between the two points (the difference in the y-coordinates) divided by the horizontal change over the same segment (the difference in the x-coordinates).
