Answer:The base of the ladder from the tree is 28ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Using pythagorean theorem

Let 100ft= hypothesis is the right angle triangle

Let 96ft be the height of the ladder

Let x be the base of the right angle triangle between the base of the ladder and the tree

h^2=a^2+b^2

100^2=96^2 +b^2

10,000=9216 +b^2

b^2=10,000-9216

b=sqrt(784)

b=28ft
