Answer:

12.7

Step-by-step explanation:

Its a pythagerous question question

so if the ladder is 8 feet from the wall the base is 8

and the ladder is 15 foot and is the hypotemuse

so 15^2-8^2=161^2

The root of 161 = 12.69 rounded to 2 dp

so 12.7

Answer:

12.7

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the Pythagorean Theorem.

The wall and ground are the legs. The ladder is the hypotenuse.

a² + b² = c²

8² + b² = 15²

b² = 225 - 64

b² = 161

b = √161 = 12.7

Answer: 12.7 ft

Work out the unknown angles. Give reasons for each answer.
zalisa [80]
A)

Because the sum of angles in a triangle must equal 180° we can say:

62+α+90=180

α+152=180

α=28°

b)

Since all sides have equal length, all angles must have equal measure.  (This is an equilateral triangle).  And again, because the sum of the angle must be 180° we can say:

b+b+b=180

3b=180

b=60°

In triangle △ABC, ∠C is a right angle and CD is the altitude to AB. Find the angles in △CBD and △CAD if m∠A = 65°
adell [148]

Simple drawing shows that measure interior angle at B is 25 degrees.

Easily seen from a drawing are that measure of angle CBD is 25 degrees, and measure of angle CAD is 65 degrees (which was already given).

Heres the plot formula!
