You will use a2+b2=c2 (squared).The leg will represent the a2 or either b2 and the hypotenuse will be the c2.After filling in the variables you will then subtract the a2 which is the leg from the c2 which is the hypotenuse.And then you will factor it or square root it.If you square root it and it’s not a feasible answer then use the Christmas tree or birthday cake method to factor the answer and then you’ll have the value of b2 which is the unknown leg.

The Statement:
AB is a Diameter is wrong because a Diameter is a straight line passing from side to side through the center. In this case it is a Chord because <span> it is a straight line segment whose endpoints both lie on the </span><span>circle.

ST,SP and Sq are radius this is true becuase </span><span> they are all lines that start from any point of the circumference and end at the center of the </span><span>circle
 
SQ= 12 cm this is false because SQ is a radius and SQ=ST, ST=6cm
PQ=12 cm this is true because PQ is a diameter</span>

A ladder needs to reach a second-story window that is 15 feet above the ground and make an angle with the ground of 71°. How far
lutik1710 [3]

Answer:

5.2 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

It helps if you can make a drawing.

You are looking for the adjacent side of the 71° angle in a right triangle and 15 is the opposite side of the angle.

Let x = the distance from the building to the base of the ladder

Tan 71 = 15/x

xtan71 = 15

x = 15/tan 71 = 5.2 feet
