Answer:
The length of the longer ladder is 35 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
Please check the attachment for a diagrammatic representation of the problem
We want to calculate the length of the longer ladder ;
We make reference to the diagram
Since the two right triangles formed are similar. the ratios of their sides are equal;
Thus;
20/15 = 28/x + 15
20(x + 15) = 15(28)
20x + 300 = 420
20x = 420-300
20x = 120
x = 120/20
x = 6
So we want to calculate the hypotenuse of a right triangle with other sides 28ft and 21 ft
To do this, we use the Pythagoras’ theorem which states that square of the hypotenuse equals the sum of the squares of the two other sides
Let the hypotenuse be marked x
x^2 = 28^2 + 21^2
x^2 = 1,225
x = √1225
x = 35 ft
the height:
(with g being the gravitational acceleration)
Answer:
The width of the photo is .
Step-by-step explanation:
From the given figure it is notices that the total width of the frame is
The photo is covered by a frame border and the width of the border is
To find the width of the photo we have to subtract the width of upper frame border and lower frame border from the total width of frame.
Width of the photo is
Therefore the width of the photo is .
