<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.
