उत्तर
Let BC = x m
In right-angled ΔACB,
AB2 = AC2 + BC2 ...[By Pythagoras theorem]
⇒ (13)2 = (5)2 + x2
⇒ 169 – 25 = x2
⇒ 144 = x2
⇒ x = `sqrt(144)`
⇒ x = 12 m
Hence, the distance between the feet of two poles is 12 m.

From given figure, In ∆ABC, If AC = 12 cm. then AB =?
Activity: From given figure, In ∆ABC, ∠ABC = 90°, ∠ACB = 30°
∴ ∠BAC = `square`
∴ ∆ABC is 30° – 60° – 90° triangle
∴ In ∆ABC by property of 30° – 60° – 90° triangle.
∴ AB = `1/2` AC and `square` = `sqrt(3)/2` AC
∴ `square` = `1/2 xx 12` and BC = `sqrt(3)/2 xx 12`
∴ `square` = 6 and BC = `6sqrt(3)`
