Answer:

The length of the ladder is approximately 74.55 ft.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the length of the ladder,

Given,

The ladder makes 28° angle with the ground and the top of the ladder reaches 35 feet up on the building,

Since, a building is generally assumed perpendicular to the ground,

So, we obtained a right triangle,

By the trigonometric ratio,

sin 28^{\circ}=\frac{35}{x}

\implies x = \frac{35}{sin 28^{\circ}}=74.5519063866\approx 74.55

Hence, the length of the ladder is approximately 74.55 ft.

1,320 cubic feet will weigh 1,320 x 62.4 = 82,368 pounds.

b. volume of each cylindrical pillar = pi * r^2 * h = pi * (1/2)^2 * 9 = pi * 1/4 * 9 = 7.069 cubic feet
weight of each cylindrical pillar:
1 cubic foot weighs 62.4 pounds
7.069 cubic feet will weigh 7.069 x 62.4 = 441 cubic feet.
