This is the application of trigonometry. The distance of the ladder from from the wall will be given by:
cos θ=(adjacent)/(hypotenuse)
θ=72°
adjacent=base (distance the ladder to base of the wall)= xft
hypotenuse=length of the ladder.
Therefore plugging our values in the formula we get:
cos 72=x/15
x=15 cos 72
x=4.635 ft
Hence we conclude that the foot of the ladder is 4.635 ft away from the base of the wall.
Answer:
31.36
Step-by-step explanation:
don't you do 5.6 times 5.6
2/3(3/8x16). 2/3(6). 4. The answer is 4 :)
The answer is C! 6/7 because the negatives cancel out!
This can be solved with multiplication. So there are 60 minutes in an hour. What you would do is multiply 60 by how many hours they drove. All together they drove 18 1/2 hours so you'd multiply 60 by 18 1/2 hours. 60*18.5=1110
1110 minutes would be the answer
