To solve this problem you must apply the proccedure shown below:

 1. You have that:

 - The<span>10-foot ladder is leaned against a wall.
 - The angle between the base of the ladder and the ground measures 62°.

 2. Therefore, you have:

 Sin</span>α=opposite/hypotenuse

 α=62°
 opposite=x
 hypotenuse=10

 3. Therefore, when you clear "x", you obtain:

 Sin(62°)=x/10
 (10)(Sin(62°))=x
 x=8.82

 <span>How far up the wall does the ladder reach from the ground rounded to the nearest tenth?
</span>
 The answer is: 8.82 ft

Burka [1]

Answer:

24 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the question, Patricia needs 10 yards of fabric to make curtains for her bedroom she also needs 3 yards of fabric to make a cover for her storage bench

So, she needs 13 yards

converting into feet

1 yard = 3 feet

13 yards x 3 = 39 feet

Finding out the difference : 39 - 15= 24 feet

Therefore, she needs 24 feet more of fabric
