Use the Pythagorean Theorem:
a² + b² = c²
4² + b² = 8.5²
16 + b² = 72.25
        b² = 56.25
        b = 7.5

 The ladder reaches a height of 7.5 ft on the wall

I REALLY NEED AN ANSWER FAST! Which statement about the diagram is true?
Marina86 [1]

Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

To keep it short, refer to triangle exterior angle theorem.

Edit: If you want the full explanation,

A isn't the answer. The triangle exterior angle states that the measure of the 2 triangle interior add up to the the exterior angle of the other interior angle within the triangle.

Meaning that

measure of angle 1 equal the measure of 3 and 4 combined.

B. is wrong they are equal to each other because angle 2 is equal to angle 2

angle 1 is equal to angle 3 and 4

So they are equal

C.Wrong unless it a 30 60 90 triangle or 45 45 90 triangle, C is wrong

D. is right since measure of angle 4 and angle 3 add up to angle 1, angle 4 would be lesser than angle 1.

Answer:

I think the answer is 42

Step-by-step explanation:

So, with all of that, the equation will now be = 5^2 + (2 * 8) / 2 + (3 * 3)

So next, you can use PEMDAS. After that, u should get ur answer of 42.

Work:

5^2 + (2 * 8) / 2 + (3 * 3)

5^2 + 16 / 2 + 9

25 + 16 / 2 + 9

25 + 8 + 9

25 + 17

= 42

Hope this helps :D!!
