Again using the Pythagorean Theorem:
h^2=x^2+y^2, where h is the hypotenuse of a right triangle and x and y are the side lengths. You are given that the hypotenuse is 34 ft and the base side is 16ft. Let h=34, x=16, and y=height, then you have:
34^2=16^2+y^2
y^2=34^2-16^2
y^2=1156-256
y^2=900
y=√900
y=30 ft
So the ladder will reach a spot 30 feet high on the building.
Answer:
56
Step-by-step explanation:
Starting January 1, 2015, there are 364 remaining nights.
From 1,001 nights, it will be 637 nights left.
In 2016, there are 366 nights. Subtract it to 637 nights left, you will get 271 nights left.
In 2017, 271 is lesser than 365.
From January to August, the nights left is 28.

So the date will be September 28, 2017.</span>
