7*6=42м
Ответ

Answer 2

Calculating the Length of the Cable

To determine the length of the cable, we can use the Pythagorean theorem, which states that in a right-angled triangle, the square of the length of the hypotenuse (the side opposite the right angle) is equal to the sum of the squares of the lengths of the other two sides.

Given: - Height of the electric pole (h1) = 8 m - Height of the house (h2) = 5 m - Distance between the house and the pole (d) = 6 m

We can use the formula: cable length = √(d^2 + (h1 - h2)^2)

Substituting the given values: cable length = √(6^2 + (8 - 5)^2)

Calculating: cable length = √(36 + 9) cable length = √45 cable length ≈ 6.71 m

So, the length of the cable is approximately 6.71 meters.
