The ladder resting against the house forms a triangle similar to the one in the image below
To answer this question you must use Pythagorean theorem
a and b are the legs (the sides that form a perpendicular/right angle)
c is the hypotenuse (the side opposite the right angle)
In this case...
a = x
b = 4
c = 20
^^^Plug these numbers into the theorem
solve for x
+ 16 = 400
= 384
x = 8√6
or
x ≈ 19.5959....

2x+y = -5. Solve this for y. We get y = -2x - 5. Find y^2: 4x^2 + 20x + 25. Substitute 4x^2 + 20x + 25 for y^2 in the first equation:
x^2 + 4x^2 + 20x + 25 = 25
Then 5x^2 + 20x = 0, so that x = 0. Subst. 0 for x in the 2nd eqn and find the value of y. Write your solutions as shown above: ( , ) and ( , ).
The answer is 41 inches. Since <span>△HKS∼△DLY, so the measurements of the angles are just the same. So if the sides are 15 x 20 x 32. Then to get the sides of the other triangle is simply adding what is the measurement of the sides from the first triangle. so it is 24 x 29 x 41. So the answer of DY is equal to 41 inches.</span>
