Visualize the image in your mind and you can see that it forms a right angled triangle with a base,altitude and hypotenuse

base=2 feet

hypotenuse(ladder)=13 ft

We need to find the altitude,

By applying pythagoras theorem,

base square+altitude square=hypotenuse square

Take altitude as x

2 square+x square=13 square

4+x square=169

x square=169-4

x square=165

x= root of 165

x=12.8 feet(approx.)

Answer:

30°

Step-by-step explanation:

Remember, all the interior angles of a triangle add up to 180 degrees. Therefore, we can find the value of x by subtracting the values of the other angles from 180:

x = 180-97-53

x=30

The area of the remaining board is [(L × B) - (l × b)].

According to the statement

We have to find that the area of the remaining board.

So, For this purpose, we know that the

Area of rectangle is the region occupied by a rectangle within its four sides or boundaries. The area of a rectangle depends on its sides.

From the given information:

Suppose the bigger rectangle is labelled as ABCD and the smaller rectangle is labelled as PQRS.

And

Consider that the length and breadth of the bigger rectangle are L and B respectively. And the length and breadth of the bigger rectangle are l and b respectively.

The area of any rectangle is:

Area = Length × Breadth

The area of the bigger rectangle is:

Area of ABCD = L × B

The area of the smaller rectangle is:

Area of PQRS = l × b

Then the area of the remaining board will be:

Area of remaining board = Area of ABCD - Area of PQRS

Area of remaining board= (L × B) - (l × b)

Thus, The area of the remaining board is [(L × B) - (l × b)].
