Answer: Height at which the wire is attached to the pole is 12 feet.
Explanation:
Since we have given that
Length of the wire = 20 feet
Let the height at which wire is attached to the pole be h
and distance along the ground from the bottom of the pole to the end of the wire be x+4
Now, it forms a right angle triangle so, we can apply "Pythagorus theorem".
But height cant be negative so, height will be 12 feet.
Hence, height at which the wire is attached to the pole is 12 feet.
