$a_n=a_1r^{n-1}\\\\a_1=-2;\ a_2=8;\ a_3=-32;\ a_4=128\\\\r=a_2:a_1\to r=8:(-2)=-4\\\\\boxed{a_n=-2\cdot(-4)^{n-1}}$

Proper angle for a ladder is about 75° from the ground. Suppose you have a 10 foot ladder. How far from the house should you pla

Alja [10]

Answer:

The base of the ladder is 2.58 m.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

The angle of elevation for a ladder from the ground is 75°.

The length of a ladder, H = 10 foot

We need to find the distance from the house should you place the base of the latter. Let the base of the ladder is b. Using trigonometry,

$\cos\theta=\dfrac{B}{H}\\\\B=H\times \cos\theta\\\\B=10\times \cos(75)\\\\B=2.58\ m$

So, the base of the ladder is 2.58 m.
