Question

SOMEONE HELP!!!!

Answer 1

Answer:

Option B is correct

3 m

Step-by-step explanation:

Using  tangent ratio:

$\tan \theta = \frac{\text{Opposite side}}{\text{Adjacent side}}$

As per the statement:

Carlota has leaned a ladder against the side of her house.

The ladder forms a 53˚ angle with the ground and rests against the house at a spot that is 4 meters high

From the given diagram:

⇒Angle of elevation$(\theta)$ = 53 degree and BC = 4 m

To find AB:

Using tangent ratio:

$\tan 53^{\circ} = \frac{BC}{AB}$

⇒$\tan 53^{\circ} = \frac{4}{AB}$

⇒$AB = \frac{4}{\tan 53^{\circ}} = \frac{4}{1.32704482162} = 3.0142162$ m

Therefore,  the best approximation for the distance along the ground from the bottom of the ladder to the wall length is, 3 m
