Question

An electrical pole breaks at a height of 6m from its base due to a thunderstorm. Its top touches the ground at a distance of 8m from the base of the pole to form a right angled triangle. Find the height of the pole.

m = metre

Answer 1

16m because if you use the pythagorean therum the rest of the pole is 10m long, which you add to the base of the pole.
