1 answer:
The length of ladder is 30 ft.
<h3>How can the feet that made up the side of the building is the top of the ladder be known ?</h3>The formula below can be used in solving the problem
Tan (∅)=
∅=70°
opposite = BC
Adjacent = 12 ft
70°= opposite/ 12
opposite= 32.96 ft
Therefore, The length of ladder is 30 ft.

Step-by-step explanation:
According to Pythagorean Theorem, the square value of hypotenuse is equal to sum of square value of two legs:
x^2 + 4^2 = 10^2
x^2 + 16 = 100 subtract 16 from both side
x^2 = 84 find the root of both sides
x =
