To solve for x, add 3 to both sides, multiply both sides by -1, then take the square both sides.
Hello!
I've attached the diagram.
For this problem, since you have a right triangle, you can use the Pythagorean Theorem to fine the length of the ladder (the hypotenuse of the triangle).
Pythagorean Theorem (where c is the hypotenuse):
a² + b² = c²
The triangle's leg lengths are 8 and 6; substitute into the theorem:
8² + 6² = c²
Simplify:
64 + 36 = c²
100 = c²
10 = c
Answer:
The length of the ladder is 10 m.
