Proper angle for a ladder is about 75° from the ground. Suppose you have a 10 foot ladder. How far from the house should you pla

Alja [10]

Answer:

The base of the ladder is 2.58 m.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

The angle of elevation for a ladder from the ground is 75°.

The length of a ladder, H = 10 foot

We need to find the distance from the house should you place the base of the latter. Let the base of the ladder is b. Using trigonometry,

$\cos\theta=\dfrac{B}{H}\\\\B=H\times \cos\theta\\\\B=10\times \cos(75)\\\\B=2.58\ m$

So, the base of the ladder is 2.58 m.

Find the area of the shaded region

Simora [160]

Answer: D. The area is 50 square meters if the shaded area looks like .

Explanation:
assuming this is a rectangle, the larger region area is 15*5= 75 square meters.
The smaller region’s area would be 10*5= 50 square meters.
• remember that A=lw, where l is length and w is width.

Without an illustration & on the assumption this is a rectangular region, here are the conclusions:
• given these two areas,
If the shaded area looks like , the area is just 50 square meters because the dimensions needed to solve for the area were given.
OR
• If the shaded region looks like subtract the smaller area from the larger one: 75-50= 25 square meters. (However, given that this is not an answer choice, I don’t think the illustration would look like this).
