Answer:

4 ft

Explanation:

To find the height of the elephant when it is lying down, we subtract the length of its legs

Height of the lying elephant = Elephant height - length of its legs.

Height of the lying elephant = 9 ft - 5 ft = 4ft.

Hence, the elephant is 4 ft tall when it is lying down.
