geniusboy [140]

Since each side of a sqare is equal and there are four sides to the square
$224 = 4x$
X being the side length.
Then you would simiply divide by 4 to isolate x
$x = 56$
A side length is 56

A ladder is leaning against a wall. The top of the ladder is 9 feet (ft) above the ground. If the bottom of the ladder is moved

Komok [63]

Step 1

First situation

when a ladder is leaning against a wall

Let

x-------> the distance of the bottom of the ladder from the wall

L-------> the length of the ladder

Find the length of the ladder

Applying the Pythagorean Theorem

$L^{2} =x^{2}+ 9^{2}$ ------> equation $1$

Step 2

Second situation

when the ladder will be lying flat on the ground

Find the length of the ladder

In this situation the length of the ladder is equal to

$L=x+3$

square both sides

$L^{2}=(x+3)^{2}$ ------> equation $2$

Step 3

equate equation $1$ and equation $2$

$x^{2}+ 9^{2}=(x+3)^{2}\\x^{2}+81=x^{2} +6x+9\\ 6x=81-9\\6x=72\\x=12\ ft$

therefore

the answer is

the length of the ladder is $12\ ft$

see the attached figure to better understand the problem
