Answer:
15 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
This problem involves using the Pythagorean theorem, since the figure made with the ladder, building, and ground would make a right triangle. You are given the values 17ft and 8ft, which is enough to plug into the Pythagorean theorem.
The ladder, 17ft, would be the longest side (hypotenuse). The 8ft building would be one of the legs of the right triangle.
1. Plug your given values correctly into the Pythagorean Theorem.
2. Now solve for b, which is your unknown distance (the distance the bottom of the ladder is from the bottom of the building).
--> Square 8 and 17
--> Subtract 64 from both sides
--> Square root both sides to get b by itself
b = 15
3. The distance is 15 feet
*Note: to make solving this problem easier, try drawing out the given situation, namely the building and the ladder
<em>Note: Since you missed to add the figure. So, after a little research I am kind of able to find the figure and hence, assuming it as a reference. Hence, I am attaching the figure and solution of that figure is also visible in the same figure.</em> Please check the attached figure (a)
Answer:
Segment B'D' will be parallel to segment BD and will be shorter than segment BD. Please see the attached figure (a) for better understanding.
Step-by-step explanation:
As we know that there are certain rules when a quadrilateral is dilated by a certain scale centered around a certain point.
So,
Let suppose P(a, b) is the point.
The dilation rule by a scale factor of 1 over 3 or (1/3) centered around (1, 2) is
P(a, b) →
Hence,
A(1, 2) → A'(1, 2)
B(2, 3) → B'(4/3, 7/3)
C(4, 2) → C'(2, 2)
D(2, 1) → D'(4/3, 5/3)
The attached figure show that if we draw the all these points in the coordinate plan i.e. A(1, 2), B(2, 3), C(4, 2), D(2, 1) and A'(1, 2), B'(4/3, 7/3), C'(2, 2), D'(4/3, 5/3), we can determine that Segment B'D' will be parallel to segment BD and will be shorter than segment BD.
