The barn, the ground, and the ladder form a right triangle. If we represent the height on the barn by y, then the Pythagorean theorem tells us
... hypotenuse² = (side1)² + (side2)²
... (12 ft)² = (3 ft)² + y² . . . . . . . . . . . . fill in given information
... 144 ft² - 9 ft² = y² = 135 ft² . . . . . .subtract (3 ft)²
... y = 3√15 ft ≈ 11.6 ft . . . . . . . . . . . take the square root
The ladder reaches 11.6 feet high on the barn.
Hey there
the answer is
(1/2)(3/4) = (3/8) of a cup
thank you

A = pi(r)^2
diameter is 18in, so radius is 9in
= pi(9)^2
A = 254.469 (round is needed)
3/8, you have a three out of eight chance of grabbing a red marble
Answer:
1. Yes
2. They could change the 60° angle into a different one.
Step-by-step explanation:
1. Two triangles are the same if they share two side lengths with the same angle between them.
2. Since the triangles are equal if they share two side lengths with the same angle between them, if they changed the angle between 3 and 5, it'd no longer be the same triangle.
