A30-meter antenna mast is stabilized by a 34 meter guy wire. how far from the base of the mast is the guy wire secured to the ground

a. 32 m
b. 64 m
c. 16 m
d. 4 m

The answer is: C. 16 m.

The figure is a right triangle, it means that we can solve it by using the Pythagorean theorem which states that, the largest side of a rectangle (hypotenuse) is equal to the sum of the other two side squares:

Where:

c=34m

a=30m

b=?

So, by substituting we have:

Have a nice day!

The correct answer is option C. 16 m

Step-by-step explanation:

Pythagoras theorem:

Hypotenuse² = Base² + Height²

It is given that,A 30-meter antenna mast is stabilized by a 34 meter guy wire.

From the figure we can see a right angled triangle.

Hypotenuse = 34 m

Height = 30

To find distance

We have to find the base of right angled triangle

Hypotenuse² = Base² + Height²

Base² = Hypotenuse² - Height²

  = 34² - 30² = 1156 - 900

  = 256

Base = √256 = 16 m

Therefore distance from the base of the mast is the guy wire secured to the ground = 16 m

The correct answer is option C. 16 m

step-by-step explanation:

i believe its "c" because all of the other options include a but it could be d because there is a way of financing with cash at certain places but its uncommon.

to find the perimeter of the rectangle this is the expression:

x-9+x-9+3x-4+3x-4=138

if we simplify it:

8x-26=138

remember, 138 is what it all adds up to

the length is 11.5cm

the width is 57.5cm

the area is 661.25cm^2
