Answer:

11.820 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

The mnemonic SOH CAH TOA reminds you that ...

Sin = Opposite/Hypotenuse

The length of the ladder is the hypotenuse of a right triangle with 52° as the base angle. The side opposite is the height up the building where the top of the ladder rests. So, you have the relation ...

sin(52°) = height/(15 ft)

Multiplying by the denominator gives you ...

height = (15 ft)·sin(52°) ≈ 11.820 ft

___

You may need to round this number appropriately.

Hello, and thanks for posting your question!

A function would be a set of ordered pairs that have no repeating "x" values, look at the example below. (V)

{(1, 0), (2, 0), (3, 0)} = Function
{(1, 0), (1, 0), (2, 0)} = Not a function.

According to this information, your answer is C. Both Set A and Set B.

Hope this helps! ☺♥
