Two poles of height 6 meters and 11 meters stand on a plane ground. If the distance between their feet is 12 meters then find the difference in the distance between their tops:

a. 12m
b. 5m
c. 13m
d. 11m

• 13 mtrs
  distance between their tops = sqrt( 12^2+(11-6)^2) = sqrt 169=13m
• 10 years agoHelpfull: Yes(20) No(0)
• answer is 5m
• 9 years agoHelpfull: Yes(2) No(9)
• by rhs rule distance= (12^2+5^2)^2
  =13

• 13 mtr
  pythagrs
  height 5 distantce 12 so diagonal is 13

• ans is c 13m
  by using phytogorous theroem
  we know two sides of the triangle
  distance btn two poles=12m
  difference btn the heights of the poles=5m
  let the difference btn their tops be xm
  x^2=12^2+5^2
  =>144+25=169
  x=13m

• distance between tops of poles=(12)^2+(11-6)^2=169=sqr.root of 169=13 meters
• 9 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(0)
• ans:c
  ans=sqrt(12^2 + 5^2)= 13m
• 9 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(0)
• 13 meter
  distance between their tops = sqrt( 12^2+(11-6)^2) = sqrt 169=13meter
• 9 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(0)
• c,h=sqrt(12^2+5^2)=sqrt(169)=13
• 9 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(0)
• explain the formula
• 9 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(0)
• Definitely it will be 13.
• 9 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(0)
• drawing the figure a/ q and labeling it one can get the answer as 13m
• 8 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(0)
• Hypotenuse
  Root of(12 square+5square)=13
  Option c
• 6 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(0)
• 13
  it will form a trainagle
  base 12
  n perpendicular will be 5 = 11-6
  so difference that is hypotenuse will be
  =square root of(144+25)
  =13

  12m | 5m(11-6)
  |---------------|
  6m | | 11m
  |____________|
  12 m
  hyp=sqrt(12^2 + 5^2)
  =sqrt(144+25)
  = sqrt(169)
  =13 meters
