A guy wire whose grounded end is 11 ft from the post it supports makes an angle of 60.4 degrees with the ground. If the wire is attached to the top of the post, find the height of the post to the nearest tenth of a foot.
You can put this solution on YOUR website! A guy wire whose grounded end is 11 ft from the post it supports makes an angle of 60.4 degrees with the ground. If the wire is attached to the top of the post, find the height of the post to the nearest tenth of a foot.
ground distance = 11 ft
angle made by wire with ground = 60.4 degrees
...
Tan = height of post / ground distance
Tan(60.4)=h/11
h = 11* tan 60.4 degrees
height of post = 19.4 feet
