Two poles which are perpendicular to the ground are stabilized by guy wires extending from the tops of the poles to the ground.  The guy wires on both poles make the same angle with the tops of the poles.  The guy wire on the12  -foot pole is  14 feet long.  How many feet long is the guy wire on the 60 -foot pole?
