Answer:

The ladder will reach 5.6 meters high.

Step-by-step explanation:

The tree, the ground and Kali's ladder form a triangle whose hypotenuse h is the ladder, base b the ground, and perpendicular p the tree. Thus from Pythagorean theorem:

p^2+b^2=h^2

Since b=2 and h=6

p=\sqrt{h^2-b^2} =\sqrt{6^2-2^2}=\boxed{5.6\:meters.}

Thus the ladder will reach 5.6 meters high.

Evaluate each expression if a = 6, b = 3, and c = 2.
earnstyle [38]

Answer:

a = 6, b = 3, and c = 2

1. ab1 = 6 × 3 × 1 = 18

2. c + 42 = 2 + 42 = 44

3. 18 = 18

4. a − b4  = 6 - 3(4) = 6 - 12 = - 6

5. 2c3 = 2 × 2 × 3 = 12

6. b ÷ 35 = 3÷35 = 0.086

7. a − 1 6 =  6 - 16 = -10

8. 6 + c8 = 6 + 2 (8) = 6 + 16 = 22
