Her next step is to repeat the last process of drawing those two arcs. However, they will be mirrored since she swapped endpoints.

Check out the diagram below. Figure 1 is what she already has. Figure 2 is what happens after completing the next step. The red and blue arcs intersect to help form the endpoints of the perpendicular bisector. I used GeoGebra to make the diagrams.

A 12-foot ladder leans against the wall; the base of the ladder is 2 feet away from the wall.To the nearest tenth of a foot, how
ludmilkaskok [199]
<h3>The ladder will reach a height of 11.8 feet up the wall</h3>

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

The ladder, wall and base of the ladder from wall forms a right angled triangle

Length of ladder forms the hypotenuse

Length of ladder = 12 foot

base of the ladder from wall = 2 feet

<em><u>To find: height of wall</u></em>

By pythagoras theorem.

c^2 = a^2+b^2

Where,

"c" is the Length of ladder

"a" is the base of the ladder from wall

"b" is the height of wall

Substituting the values,

12^2 = 2^2+b^2\\\\144 = 4 + b^2\\\\b^2 = 140\\\\b = \pm 11.832 \\\\Ignore\ negative\ value\\\\b \approx 11.8

Thus, the ladder will reach a height of 11.8 feet on wall

Answer:

The elevator stops on the 19th floor.

Step-by-step explanation:

On the 16th floor, goes up 12 floors:

16 + 12 = 28

On the 28th floor, goes down 7 floors:

28 - 7 = 21

On the 21st floor, does up 3 floors:

21 + 3 = 24

On the 24th floor, goes down 5 floors:
