  1. Given, a guy wire attached to a vertical pole of height 18 m is 24 m long and has a stake attached to the other end.

    Triangles Exercise 6.5 Answer 10

    Let AB be the pole and AC be the wire.

    By Pythagoras theorem,

    AC2 = AB2 + BC2

    242 = 182 + BC2

    BC= 576 – 324

    BC= 252

    BC = 6√7m

    Therefore, the distance from the base is 6√7m.
