A ladder leans against a building. The angle of elevation of the ladder is 70°. The top of the ladder is 25 ft from the ground.

1 answer:

7 0

The distance from the base of the ladder to the way will be given by:
tan θ= opposite/adjacent
θ=70
adjacent=x
opposite=25 ft
thus
tan 70=25/x
thus
x=25/tan 70
hence:
x=9.1 ft

Answer: 9.1 ft

A student evaluated -4 + x for x = 9 1/2 and got an answer of 5 1/2. What might the student have done wrong?

Vikki [24]

-4+x=9.5
x=13.5

The student might have subtracted 9.5-4, which results in the answer 5.5. The correct answer is 13.5.
