Hey, I checked the sticky for good math resources but didn't find anything in particular to what I was looking for. I'm essentially looking for basic math real life word problems. If any out there that's a tutor or a teacher and knows a reliable site, please share. Also, gif unrelated.

Things like this:

A radio station is going to construct a 12 foot tower ontop of a building. the tower will be supported by three cables, each attached to the top of the tower and to points on the roof of the building which are five feet from the base of the tower. What is the total length o the three cables?

Something like that. Very basic real world problems. Stuff that could involve finding the area of things as well.

that would be geometry, and you should've already learned some in school; the guy wire thing (that's what those wires are called) specifically is trigonometry, which you might not have been introduced to; either way, Google should be able to find you something that'll help
