Answer:
c = 85 yd
Step-by-step explanation:
Using Pythagoras' identity in the right triangle.
The square on the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares on the other 2 sides , that is
c² = 77² + 36² = 5929 + 1296 = 7225 ( take square root of both sides )
c =
= 85
See attached picture and check solution below.
We are given with the following values:
A = length of transmission line = 96ft
B = length of shadow = 72 feet
C = distance of ladder to base of transmission line = 66 feet
Solve for angle created between the wire and tip of the shadow:
tan x = opposite/ adjacent
tan x = 96 feet / 72 feet
x = 53.13°
Solving for the height of the ladder:
tan x = Ladder length / (72-66)
tan 53.13° * (72-66) = ladder length
ladder length = 8 feet
The answer is letter "B" which is 8 feet.
