The distance between the building and the ladder is 34.876 foot.

<h3>What is a Right Triangle?</h3>

A triangle in which one of the angle measure is equal to 90 degree is called a right triangle.

The ladder forms a right triangle with the building and the ground,

The length of the triangle is 40 foot

The angle made by the ladder is 29.32 degree

By using Trigonometric Ratios

cos 29.32 = Base /  Hypotenuse

cos 29.32 = Base / 40

0.8718 × 40 = Base

Base = 34.876 foot

Base is the distance between the building and the ladder.

Base of the ladder = 34.876 foot

The sum of the interior angles of a triangle is 180 the second angle of a triangle is 45 more than the first and the third angle
vfiekz [6]
First angle is x
x + (x + 45) + 2x = 180
4x + 45 = 180
4x = 180 - 45 = 135
x = 135 divided by 4
x = 33.75
first angle 33.75
second angle 78.75
third angle 67.5
checking
33.75 + 78.75 + 67.5 = 180

Sandra's scores on the first 4 tests were 87%, 92%, 76%,and 89%. What is the minimum score she needs to make on the fifth test s
sergejj [24]

Answer:

Sandra need to score at least <u>56%</u> in her fifth test so that her average is 80%.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

First 4 test scores = 87%, 92%, 76%,89%

Average targeted = 80%

We need to find the minimum score she needs to make on fifth test to achieve average of at least 80%.

Solution:

Let the minimum score she needs to make in fifth test be 'x'.

Total number of test = 5

Now we know that;

Average is equal to sum of all the scores in the test divided by number of test.

framing in equation form we get;

\frac{87+92+76+89+x}{5}=80

Multiplying both side by 5 we get;

\frac{344+x}{5}\times 5=80\times 5\\\\344+x=400

Subtracting both side by 344 we get;

344+x-344=400-344\\\\x=56\%

Hence Sandra need to score at least <u>56%</u> in her fifth test so that her average is 80%.
