By using the Pythagoras theorem, the length of the ladder will be 13.6 feet.

<h3>What is a Pythagoras theorem?</h3>

The Pythagoras theorem states that the sum of two squares equals the squared of the longest side.

The Pythagoras theorem formula is given as

H² = P² + B²

Jennifer needs to use a ladder to clean a second-floor window on a building.

If the window is 13 ft above the ground and the base of the ladder is 4 ft from the building.

Then the length of the ladder will be

H² = 13² + 4²

H² = 169 + 16

H² = 185

H = 13.6 ft

More about the Pythagoras theorem link is given below.

Find the height of the tree
NeX [460]

Use the property of similarity of triangles =》the corresponding sides of a triangle should be in the same ratio.

Take the missing side as 'x'.

The corresponding sides here are,

■ 7 & 14 ft

■ 5 & x ft

7/14 = 5/x

7x = 5 × 14 (cross multiplication)

7x = 70

x = 70/7

x = 10 ft

Height of the tree = 10 ft.
