there′s a formula  w=(((4h^2 −l^2 ))/(4h))ln ((l−2h)/(l+2h))  in our case h=40; l=80 ⇒ w=0  for h=40; l=100 we get w=45ln 3 ≈49.438m
$$\mathrm{there}'\mathrm{s}\:\mathrm{a}\:\mathrm{formula} \\ $$$${w}=\frac{\left(\mathrm{4}{h}^{\mathrm{2}} −{l}^{\mathrm{2}} \right)}{\mathrm{4}{h}}\mathrm{ln}\:\frac{{l}−\mathrm{2}{h}}{{l}+\mathrm{2}{h}} \\ $$$$\mathrm{in}\:\mathrm{our}\:\mathrm{case}\:{h}=\mathrm{40};\:{l}=\mathrm{80}\:\Rightarrow\:{w}=\mathrm{0} \\ $$$$\mathrm{for}\:{h}=\mathrm{40};\:{l}=\mathrm{100}\:\mathrm{we}\:\mathrm{get}\:{w}=\mathrm{45ln}\:\mathrm{3}\:\approx\mathrm{49}.\mathrm{438}{m} \\ $$

we had this before  if the cable is 2l long and the height of the  curve is l ⇒ the distance of the poles =0
