Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The ladder forms a right angle triangle with the building and the ground. The length of the ladder represents the hypotenuse of the right angle triangle. The height, h from the top of the ladder to the base of the house represents the opposite side of the right angle triangle.
The distance from the foot of the ladder to the base of the house represents the adjacent side of the right angle triangle.
To determine the height, h that the ladder reaches, we would apply Pythagoras theorem which is expressed as
Hypotenuse² = opposite side² + adjacent side²
15² = 9² + h²
225 = 81 + h²
h² = 225 - 81 = 144
h = √144 = 12 feet
Answer:
rise over run
Step-by-step explanation:
how much it goes up over how far it goes to the side
Hey there!
2.7 * 10^4 + 120
10^4
= 10 * 10 * 10 * 10
= 100 * 100
= 10,000
2.7 * 10,000 + 120
= 27,000 + 120
= 27,120
Therefore, your answer is. [10,000 * 2.712] because 10,000 * 2.712 is approximately 27,120
Good luck on your assignment and enjoy your day!

The correct answer is a (8^3) because you write out 8 being multiplied 3 times, which is the correct answer
We have similar triangles so
12/x = (12+78)/(x+13)
We can skip some algebra by doing the ratio on the pieces. We'll show it works at the end.
12/x = 78/13
x = 12(13)/78 = 2
We check
12/2 = 6
(12+78)/(2+13) = 90/15 = 6, good
Answer: x=2
