We first approach this problem by illustrating the situation. Refer to the diagram attached.
From the diagram, we can clearly see that we need to simply solve for the length marked x in order to find the distance between the foot of the ladder to the base of the wall.
Remember SOHCAHTOA. We can apply here the concept of cosine since we have the angle. Incorporationg x into the equation, we can simply make use of the relation cosine 72° = adjacent/hypotenuse.


ANSWER: The distance between the foot of the ladder and the base of the wall is 4.6 feet.
Answer:
119°
Step-by-step explanation:
the angles of a triangle make 180° (so does a straight line) therefore
180 (triangle) = a + c + 51
to find c:
180 (straight line) = 112 + c
c = 180 - 112
c = 68°
now we have
180 (triangle) = a + 68 + 51
to find a:
a = 180 - (68 + 51)
a = 180 - 119
a = 61°
to find b:
180 (straight line) = 61 + b
b = 180 - 61
b = 119°
Answer:
Sources of electrical current
Step-by-step explanation:
Based on the information given the reason why
He/ She places a compass at different positions on a wall until the compass needle change to a direction was because the construction worker
was most likely using the compass to find the Sources of an ELECTRICAL CURRENT or where the ELECTRICAL CURRENT originated from reason been that ELECTRICAL CURRENT is the movement of electric charge from cathode to anode .
5x+2 because you have to multiply 5 by x and then add two
