The length of the rope that is attached to the top of the pole and the rock at ground level is 29.16 feet
Height of the pole = 25 feet
Distance of the rock from the pole at the ground level = 15 feet
A rope is attached from the top of the pole to the rock on the ground
Let the Height of the Pole be AB
Distance of rock from pole in ground level be BC
Length of rope be AC
Thus, the length of the rope can be found using Pythagoras' theorem which states that the
Square of the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the square of the other two sides.
AC² = AB²+ BC²
= 25² + 15²
= 625 + 225
AC² = 850
AC = √850
AC = 29.155
Therefore, the length of the rope is 29.155
After rounding off, the length of the rope will be 29.16 feet
