Answer to Problem 34CR

  21cm

Explanation of Solution

Given:

  Geometry For Enjoyment And Challenge, Chapter 15, Problem 34CR

  Radius of Small ball=r=4cmRadius of Big ball=R=9cm

Formula Used:

  Pythagoras Theorem:h2=b2+p2

Calculation:

  Let,The perpendicular distance between the centre of small ball and the large ball bexAnd y be the base =Rr=94=5Radius of Small ball=r=4cmRadius of Big ball=R=9cm132=y2+x2169=52+x2x2=16925x=144=12cmTotal distance between small ball and the ground is =x+R=12+9=21cm

Conclusion:

Thus, the required height is 21cm .
