Use pathagoream theorem. You get the equation: 10^2=6^2+x^2 then solve and simplify to get x=8 So no Tom is not afraid of the heights

The ladder touches the deck at 8 feet high..
a = 6 ft ; b = unknown ; c = 10 ft

6² + b² = 10²
b² = 10² - 6²
b² = 100 - 36
b² = 64
b = √64
<span>b = 8 feet.</span>

find an equation of the tangent line to the curve at the given point. y=sqrt(x) (1,1) Ive never been good with these equations a
Nady [450]
Equation of a tangent line of a curve is:
y- y0 = f´ (x0) (x - x0 ).   In this case: x0=1, y0=1
f´(x)=\frac{1}{2 \sqrt{x} }(Derivation)
f´(x0)=\frac{1}{2}
y - 1 = 1/2 ( x - 1 )
y - 1 = 1/2 x - 1/2
y = 1/2 x - 1/2 + 1
y =\frac{1}{2}x+ \frac{1}{2}

What is the value of s?<br> S=
barxatty [35]

Answer:

s = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of the interior angles of a polygon is

sum = 180° (n - 2) ← n is the number of sides

Here n = 5 , then

sum = 180° × 3 = 540°

sum the interior angles and equate to 540

39s + 129 + 79 + 145 + 148 = 540 , that is

39s + 501 = 540 ( subtract 501 from both sides )

39s = 39 ( divide both sides by 39 )

s = 1
