Asked by admin @ 05/11/2021 in Physics viewed by 231 People

Ben set up a volleyball net in his backyard. One of the poles, which forms a right angle with the ground, is 7 feet high. To secure the pole, he attached a rope from the top of the pole to a stake 11 feet from the bottom of the pole. Find the length of the rope. (Round to the nearest tenth of a foot, if necessary).

Answered by admin @ 05/11/2021

Answer:

length of rope is 13.04 feet

Explanation:

Given data

high = 7 feet

from the bottom = 11 feet

to find out

length of rope

solution

we use here Pythagorean Theorem

we know length of rope is here hypotenuse

so h² = 7² + 11²

so h = $\sqrt{49 + 121}$

h = $\sqrt{170}$

h = 13.038 ft

so length of rope is 13.04 feet
