A ladder is leaning against a building.The distance from the bottom of the ladder to the building is 6ft shorter than the length
Akimi4 [234]

Answer:

15 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, the illustration for the problem is a right triangle with:

hypotenuse (C)= the length of the ladder = L

horizontal side(A) = distance from bottom of the ladder to the building = L - 6

vertical side(B) = distance from the top of the ladder to the bottom of the building = L - 3

So, we can use Pythagoras formula:

A2 +B2= C2

(L – 6 )² + (L-3)² = L²

L²-12L+36+L²-6L+9 =L²

L2 -18L+45 =0

APPLYING QUADRATIC FORMULA WE OBTAIN:

L =15 OR L=3

If L=3

Vertical side = L-3 = 0 (Length can´t be 0)

So L=15

How do you invert and multiply to divide 2/3÷4
Ira Lisetskai [31]
2/3  ÷  4

2/3 ÷ 4/1

We invert the 4/1 to 1/4 and multiply out.

2/3  ×  1/4

= 1/3 × 1/2                              2 into 4 is 2.

= 1/(3 × 2)

= 1/6

Hope this helps.

*Will give brainliest* A ladder, leaning against a wall, makes an angle of 20° with the ground. The foot of the ladder is 3 m fr
Fantom [35]

Answer:

The answer is 3.64m

This is because if you draw a diagram, and label all the sides of the triangle (opp, hyp, adj), the adjacent angle is 3m. You can now use the sine rule to find the hypotenuse (length of ladder) by doing: cos 30= 3/h. You divide cos 30 by 3 and you get the answer of 3.64m rounding to 2 decimal places.
