Let's mark the pole's length as x.
1/2 * x will be then underground,
1/3 * x is under water,
(that's total of 1/2 + 1/3 = 3/6 + 2/6 = 5/6 * x we know is invisible)
9 is visible and it has to be that remaining 1/6 * x.
Given simple equation:
9 = x / 6
x = 9 * 6 = 54
The total length of the pole is 54 ft.

Triangle has two sides of length 4 and 15 What value could the length of the third side be?
The third side must be longer than 11 and shorter than 19.
In a 30-60-90 right triangle the length of the hypotenuse is?
You need the length of a side. Try sketching different size triangles with 30/60/90 degree angles - there's an infinite number of them. The length of the hypotenuse is the shortest side / sin30 or the third side / sin60. As sin 30 is 0.5 then the hypotenuse is twice the length of the shortest side (or the third side divided by ½root3 ).

Can you find the length of one side with the hypotenuse and the right angle?
No. You need either another angle or the length of another side. For example, to solve a2 +b2=c2 (the formula for a right triangle, in which c is the hypotenuse) you must have values for 2 variables to solve for the third.
