over the towers of a bridge a cable is hung in the form of a parabola, have their tops 30 meters above the road way are 200 meters apart. If the cable is 5 meters above the road way at the centre of the bridge, then the length of the vertical supporting cable 30 meters from the centre is

Answer» `x^2=4a(y-b)`
`x^2=4a(y-5)`
`100*100=4a(30-5)`
a=100
`x^2=400(y-5)`
At x=30
`900=400(y-5)`
`y=29/4m`
