Answer:

15.2 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

We use Pythagorean Theorem to find the height.

The hypotenuse of the formed triangle =  length of ladder = 16 feet

base = 5 feet

let h = height of house

16 ^2 = 5^2  +  h^2

256 = 25 + h^2

231 = h^2

h = root(231) = 15.1986 feet

Please someone help me!!!!!!​
ella [17]

Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the identity

cos2Θ = 1 - 2sin²Θ, then

1 - 2sin²(\frac{\pi }{4} - \frac{0}{2} )

= cos [2(\frac{\pi }{4} - \frac{0}{2} )]

= sos(\frac{\pi }{2} - Θ )

= cos\frac{\pi }{2}cosΘ + sin

= 0 × cosΘ + 1 × sinΘ

= 0 + sinΘ

= sinΘ = right side
