Set up a triangle with the ladder being the hypotenuse the wall being one side and the distance away being the other side. Now use pythagorean theorem a^2+b^2=c^2
4^2+15^2=c^2
16+225=c^2
241=c^2
C=15.52 now round
C=15.5 feet

What is the area of the square?*<br> Perimeter =60m
djverab [1.8K]

Answer:

A = 225 m ^2

Step-by-step explanation:

The perimeter of a square is found by

P =4s where s is the side of a square

60 = 4s

Divide each side by 4

60/4 =4s/4

15 = s

Now we need  to find the area

A = s^2 for the area of a square

A = 15^2

A = 225 m ^2

A geologist visits 60 volcanoes in Alaska and California. 15% of the volcanoes are in California. How many volcanoes did the geo
labwork [276]
To solve this, first find out how many volcanoes were in California. As 15% were in California, you can multiply the total number of volcanoes by the percent IN DECIMAL FORM. To convert it to decimal form, divide it by 100, so 15/100=.15. Now multiply by your total to get the number of volcanoes in California (C), C=60*.15=9 volcanoes in California. To get the volcanoes in Alaska, yous subtract your volcanoes in California from your total, so 60-9=51 volcanoes in Alaska.
