  1. Question 1

    Q1. A guy wire attached to a 25 m high pole makes an angle of 60° with the ground. How long is the wire?

    • A) 25√3 / 3 m
    • B) 50 / √3 m
    • C) 25 * 2 / √3 m
    • D) 50 m

    Answer: 50 / √3 m

    Explanation: Using sin(60°) = 25 / length, we get length = 25 / sin(60°) = 25 / (√3 / 2) = 50 / √3 m.
