An electrician needs to run a cable from the top of a 64​-foot tower to a transmitter box located 48 feet away from the base of the tower. Find how long he should cut the cable.

Respuesta :

The answer is 80.

This is just a Pythagorean theorem question. 64^2+48^2=c^2.
4096+2304=c^2
6400=c^2
80=c

Hope that helped!
