Answer:
11.4 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
Using the right triangle formed by the tent pole, the ground and the guy rope, where the guy rope (g) is the hypotenuse.
Applying Pythagoras' identity
The square on the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares on the other 2 sides.
g² = 9² + 7² = 81 + 49 = 130 ( take the square root of both sides )
g =
≈ 11.4 feet
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
First off, your drawing is kinda inaccurate, because the
looks like a right angle, but as you drew it yourself it doesn't matter too much.
We know that the sum of the angles of a triangle will always equal
, so we have that
.
Combining like terms on the left side gives
.
Subtracting
from both sides gives
.
So,
and we're done!
