Answer:
Distance of foot of ladder from building: <em>37.2 inches </em>
Distance of top of ladder from building's base: <em>114 inches </em>
Step-by-step explanation:
Please refer to the figure attached in the answer area.
A right angled triangle is formed by the ladder with the building where hypotenuse is the length of ladder.
Hypotenuse, <em>AC </em>= <em>10 foot </em>
Also, we are given that angle made by the base of ladder with the ground is .
We have to find <em>AB</em> and <em>BC</em>.
Using trigonometric functions:
Distance of foot of ladder from building: <em>37.2 inches </em>
Distance of top of ladder from building's base: <em>114 inches </em>
