the same old question the 1.000.000.000th  time.  the cable hangs down 40 meters from each  pole. if the cable is 80 meters long, there′s  no length left ⇒ the poles have distance 0

$$\mathrm{the}\:\mathrm{same}\:\mathrm{old}\:\mathrm{question}\:\mathrm{the}\:\mathrm{1}.\mathrm{000}.\mathrm{000}.\mathrm{000th} \\ $$$$\mathrm{time}. \\ $$$$\mathrm{the}\:\mathrm{cable}\:\mathrm{hangs}\:\mathrm{down}\:\mathrm{40}\:\mathrm{meters}\:\mathrm{from}\:\mathrm{each} \\ $$$$\mathrm{pole}.\:\mathrm{if}\:\mathrm{the}\:\mathrm{cable}\:\mathrm{is}\:\mathrm{80}\:\mathrm{meters}\:\mathrm{long},\:\mathrm{there}'\mathrm{s} \\ $$$$\mathrm{no}\:\mathrm{length}\:\mathrm{left}\:\Rightarrow\:\mathrm{the}\:\mathrm{poles}\:\mathrm{have}\:\mathrm{distance}\:\mathrm{0} \\ $$

but a freely hanging cable is a smooth  curve, not a straight or zigzag line.

here it is a logic question. you don′t  need to calculate, but to think. this  question should be answered correctly  by everybody.    but you must calculate, if the cable is  for example 100 m long. and this  can not be answered by everybody. you  must understand  some special  mathematics to solve it.
