Since you have the hypotenuse (5) and the adjacent side (1.8) all you have to do is find out what squared times 1.8 squared equals 5 squared. the formula for this is a^2 + b^2 = c^2

Now to figure this out you can do 5^2 which equals 25. 
Then you do 1.8^2 which equals 3.24. then you subtract the two and get 21.76.
if you find the square root of 21.76 you will get 4.6647.
4.6647 is the distance of how far up the wall the ladder reaches.

Please help me out with this

The numbers in the chart are -7.1, -3.4, -1.2, 2.1, and 3.4. So, from greatest to least the numbers will be:

3.4, 2.1, -1.2, -3.4, and then -7.1.

With absolute value, the numbers from greatest to least are: 

|7.1|, |3.4|, 3.4, 2.1, |1.2|.

However, this is assuming that Friday is 3.4, which was given information on the last question. Hope this helps!

How do you find the square root of 2809
Hunter-Best [27]
If this is greater than the first part of the number called by the spectator (i.e., ignoring the last two digits), then the last digit of your answer is the lower of the two possible values. Otherwise the last digit is the higher value. For example if the number called is 2809, the square root could be either 53 or 57.
