The right triangle has legs of x and 2.5 where x is the height up the wall that the ladder will reach. The length of the ladder is the hypotenuse of the right triangle.

According to the Pythagorean Theorem, x^2 + 2.5^2 = 12^2
x = 11.736 approx To the nearest tenth that is 11.7.

Whats is the answer to 6×4?
Kazeer [188]
6x4=24

Multiplication is just repeating addition! For example, you can use repetitive (repeating) addition to solve 6x4.

6+6+6+6=24

I added 6 4 times to get to 24. I added it four times because you are multiplying 6 by 4! I am adding 6 (the first number) 4 times (the second number)!

Other examples:

1 x 7=7 because 1+1+1+1+1+1+1=7

2x2=4 because 2+2=4

I hope this helped! :)
