Question

What is the longest flag pole in a hole seeds that can be shipped in a box that measures 3‘ x 3‘ x 10‘

Answer 1

10.44'

Explanation:

Given the box dimension :

3' * 3' * 10'

The length of the longest flagpole can be obtained using Pythagoras :

a² + b² = c²

Where, c = hypotenus = Longest side

a = 3 ` b = 10

c² = 3² + 10²

c² = 9 + 100

c² = 109

c = sqrt(109)

c = 10.44
