The cable makes a right triangle with the ground and the tower. You'd be using the Pythagorean theorem (a2+b2=c2) c is the cable (200') and use 80' as either a or b.

a2+802=2002

a2=2002-802

a2=40000-6400

a2=33600

a=183.3' rounded

A 300 foot support cable needs to be anchored in the ground from a tower is 275 feet high Find the distance along the ground where the cable should be anchored?

The answer is 119.9. All you have to do is use Pythagorean theorem. a^2+b^2=c^2. 275 is a, 300 is c, and you solve for b.

A guy wire is attached to a tower at a point on the tower 115m from the base The guy wire is anchored to the ground at a point on the ground 24m from the base of the tower Draw the diagram?

I'm unable to draw diagrams. However, you can visualize the scenario with the tower standing vertically. One side of the triangle represents the tower (115m) and the other side the anchor point on the ground (24m). The guy wire forms the hypotenuse of the right triangle. The angle between the tower and the ground is formed by the guy wire.
