The length of the ladder is 25 feet.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Height of the House, h = 24 feet

Distance between the house and the ladder, b = 7 feet

length of the ladder, x = ?

The house makes 90° with the base of the ladder.

Using pythagoras  theorm,

x² = h² + b²

x² = (24)² + (7)²

x = √625

x = 25

Therefore, the length of the ladder is 25 feet.

<em>where</em><em> </em><em>W</em><em>=</em><em> </em><em>the</em><em> </em><em>wid</em><em>th</em><em>.</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

mathematically, perimeter (p)= 2L +2W

where L= length.and W=width

<em>from</em><em> </em><em>the</em><em> </em><em>exp</em><em>ression</em><em> </em><em>;</em><em>length is 5 more than the width</em>

<em>it</em><em> </em><em>is</em><em> </em><em>wri</em><em>tten</em><em> </em><em>as</em><em> </em>L = 5+W

<em>sub</em><em>stitute</em><em> </em><em>in</em><em> </em><em>the</em><em> </em><em>formu</em><em>la</em><em> </em>

P= 2(5+W)+2W

P=10+2W+2W

P=10+4W as the perimeter of the rectangle.
