By the Pythagorean theorem
50^2 = x^2 +(x +34)^2
2500 = 2x^2 +68x + 1156
x^2 +34x -672 = 0
(x -14)(x +48) = 0
x = 14 or -48
The distance from the wall to the base of the ladder is 14 ft.

7-24-25 is a Pythagorean triple. The dimensions here are double those values. It can be handy to know a few of the Pythagorean triples, as that can let you write down the answers to problems without having to go through the equations.
Answer:
C
Step-by-step explanation:
Since GJ bisects ∠ FGH , then ∠ FGJ = ∠ JGH = x + 14
∠ FGH = ∠ FGJ + ∠ JGH , substitute values
4x + 16 = x + 14 + x + 14 = 2x + 28 ( subtract 2x from both sides )
2x + 16 = 28 ( subtract 16 from both sides )
2x = 12 ( divide both sides by 2 )
x = 6
Thus
∠ FGJ = x + 14 = 6 + 14 = 20° → C

Step-by-step explanation:
i mean i cant really explain it, its kinda self explanatory
A function is a relation that associates each element x of a set X, to a single element y of another set Y.
Circle is not a function of x. For x = 0 we have y = -7 and y = 7.
