<h3>What is a right-angle triangle?</h3>

It is a triangle in which one of the angles is 90 degrees and the other two are sharp angles. The sides of a right-angled triangle are known as the hypotenuse, perpendicular, and base.

As per the picture attached, the triangle is a right angle triangle:

Let's assume the length of the ladder is x meter

From the Pythagoras theorem:

x = √(2.8²+4.5²)

x = √(7.84+20.25)

x = 5.3 m

Thus, the length of the ladder is 5.3 meter if the base of a ladder is placed 2.8 m away from a tree that is 4.5 m tall. The end of the ladder touches the top of the tree.

-2(4a+4b)+5a&gt;-35<br> Solve the inequality
Amiraneli [1.4K]

Step-by-step explanation:

-2 (4a + 4b) + 5a > -35

-8a -8b + 5a > -35

-3a -8b > -35

for a

-3a > -35 + 8b

a < -35 + 8b ÷ -3

a < 35 - 8b ÷ 3

for b

-3a - 8b > -35

-8b > -35 + 3a

b < -35 + 3a ÷ -8

b < 35 - 3a ÷ 8

Let's solve your inequality step-by-step.

3 ≤ 7 + g

Step 1:Simplify both sides of the inequality.

3 ≤ g + 7

Step 2: Flip the equation.

g + 7 ≥ 3

Step 3: Subtract 7 from both sides.

g + 7 − 7 ≥ 3 − 7

g ≥ −4

Answer:

g ≥ −4
