13m

Explanation:

Use the attached diagram as the guide to this problem:

Height of the building = 12meter

distance of bottom of ladder from the building = 5meter

Unknown

Length of the ladder = ?

Solution:

To solve this problem, we use the pythagoras theorem

   Hypotenuse = \sqrt{opposite ^{2} + adjacent^{2}  }

Hypotenuse = ?

Adjacent = 5m

opposite = 12m

 Hypotenuse =  \sqrt{12 ^{2} + 5^{2}  } = \sqrt{169} = 13m

Describe the origin and the impact the black plague had on Europe.
a_sh-v [17]
I say consequences of the Black Death included a series of religious, social, and economic upheavals, which had profound effects on the course ofEuropean history. The Black Death was one of the most devastatingpandemics in human history, peaking in Europe between 1347 and 1350 with 30% to 65% of the population killed. It reduced world population from an estimated 450 million to between 350 and 375 million. It took 80 and in some areas more than 150 years for Europe's population to recover.f<span>rom the perspective of many of the survivors, however, the impact was much more benign, for their labor was in higher demand. Hilton has argued that those English peasants who survived found their situation to be much improved.

Answer:

Answer are written below:

Explanation:

1) It is very important to have a universal method established to guide archaeological excavations because you have to planned out everything in order to find a method or a way to work through the study.

2)  Understanding our past is important to our future because studying history enables us to understand the world better and the past gives us courage and protects us from harm.

3) It would be more challenging to be a prehistoric archaeologist as compared to historical archaeologist because historic archaeology is easier to study due to the presence in written form whereas  Prehistoric archaeology is very difficult to study due to no written records are present.

4) I will work as an academic archaeologist as compared to cultural resource management (CRM) archaeologist because academic archaeologists are active researchers in their field which also published their work in the books, journals, and popular publications.
