Can someone help me :( A telephone pole breaks and falls as shown. To the nearest foot, what was the original height of the pole.

19 ft.

Step-by-step explanation:

Pytahgorean theorm. A^2 + B ^2 = C^2

49 + 100 = 149

Square root the 149, which is ~12

That means the hypotenuse is twelve feet, and with the base of the pole being seven, the pole was originally 19 feet tall.

20 ft :3 ok byeee3
