The top of a brok A. 25 m
B. 13 m
C. 18 m
D. 17 m
Answer :
Given: Height of broken tree = 5m
Base distance of tree touch the ground = 12cm
Formula Used/Theory:-
Pythagoras theorem:-
Base2 + Height2 = Hypotenuse2
Length of broken tree is :-
Base2 + Height2 = Hypotenuse2
122 + 52 = Hypotenuse2
144 + 25 = Hypotenuse2
169 = Hypotenuse2
Height of broken tree = √ 169 = 13m
Height of tree = length of broken tree + 5m
= 13m + 5m = 18m
