The ladder is the hypotenuse.
One of the legs is 5 feet.
We need to find the height.

a^2 + 5^2 = 12^2
a^2 + 25 = 144
a^2 = 144 - 25
a^2 = 119
a = √119

a ≈ 10.9 feet

The ladder reaches up 10.9 feet.

Confusion .. help please

Answer:

2

Step-by-step explanation:

We are to determine the value of KM which is adjacent to angle 35. we also have the value for the hypotenuse. Thus we would use COS

Cos 35 = adjacent /hypotenuse

0.8192 = adjacent / 123

adjacent = 0.8192 x 123 = 100.7557 cm

100.8 cm

the tenth is the first number after the decimal place. To convert to the nearest tenth, look at the number after the tenth (the hundredth). If the number is greater or equal to 5, add 1 to the tenth figure. If this is not the case, add zero

Step-by-step explanation:

P.S - The exact question is -

Given - Sophia buys an apple that weighs 0.45 pound, a grapefruit that weighs \frac{3}{4} pound, a navel orange that weighs \frac{5}{8} pound, and a pear that weighs 0.5 pound.

To find - What is the order of the fruit from least weight to the greatest weight ?

Proof -

Weight of apple = 0.45 pound

Weight of grapefruit = \frac{3}{4} pound = 0.75 pound

Weight of navel orange = \frac{5}{8} pound = 0.625 pound

Weight of a pear = 0.5 pound

As,

0.45 < 0.5 < 0.625 < 0.75

So, The order of fruit from least to greatest weight is -

Apple , pear, navel orange, grapefruit
