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.

Answer:

∠ D = 28°

Step-by-step explanation:

The external angle of a triangle is equal to the sum of the 2 opposite interior angles.

∠ EBC is an exterior angle of Δ ABE, thus

∠ EBC = 90° + 34° = 124°

BD bisects ∠ EBC, so

∠ EBD = 124° ÷ 2 = 62° , then

∠ D = 180° - (90 + 62)° = 180° - 152° = 28° ( angle sum of triangle )

What are the x-intercepts of the graph y=f(x+4)
Sergio [31]
The graph is y=x+4, to get the x-intercept we let y=0; and solve for x
thus we shall have:
0=x+4
subtract 4 from both sides
0-4=x+4-4
-4=x
hence the x-intercept will be at point (-4,0)

Danielle plotted 3 points from the equation y = 4x on this coordinate grid. She drew a straight line through the points.
barxatty [35]
You can find any ordered pair in which the y coordinate is 4 times the x coordinate.

For example, an ordered pair could be (2,8) or (5,20)
