Aguy wire for a suspension bridge runs from the ground diagonally to the top of the closest pylon to make a triangle. we can use the pythagorean theorem to find the length of guy wire needed. the square of the distance between the wire on the ground and the pylon on the ground is 90,000 feet. the square of the height of the pylon is 160,000 feet. so the length of the guy wire can be found by evaluating 90,000 + 160,000 . what is the length of the guy wire?

The guy wire lenght is 500 ft.

Step-by-step explanation:

The Pythagorean Theorem says the sum of the squares two adyacent sides is equal to the square of the opposite side.

Applied in this example, we can rephrase it as:

The sum of the square of the pylon height with the square of the distance from the guy wire tip to the pylon is Equal to the  square of the Guy wire lenght.

So:

a line is an defined derm because it

a)contains an infinite number of points b) can be used to create other geometric shapes c)describes something that does not have width or depth d) is a term that does not have a formal definition. a line is an undefined term because it: contains an infinite number of points.
