Answer: 8 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
Draw a right triangle and label the sides using the given information. (Drawing below) Use pythagorean theorem to find the missing length:
a^2 + b^2 = c^2
(building)^2 + (missing piece)^2 = (ladder)^2
6^2 + x^2 = 10^2
36 + x^2 = 100. subtract 36
x^2 = 64. square root of both sides
x = 8
Here we don't know the length of the hypo, but do have measures of both legs of this right triangle: x and 40 yd.
Use the tangent function to determine the value of x:
x
--------- = tan 62 degrees. Solving for x: x = (40 yd)(tan 62 deg).
40 yd can you evaluate this yourself?
Answer:
x ≈ 1.4
Step-by-step explanation:
Using the sine ratio in the right triangle
sin50° =
=
=
( multiply both sides by 1.8 )
1.8 × sin50° = x , then
x ≈ 1.4 ( to the nearest tenth )
