A 13 foot ladder is resting against a house. The base of the ladder is 5 feet from the base of the wall.

Answer:

This is just the application of Pythagoras theorem

To find how high up the wall the ladder reach

⇒ 13^2 = x^2 + 5^2

therefore x^2 = 13^2 - 5^2

                x^2 = 169 -25

                x^2 = 144

                   x = 12

therefore the ladder is 12 foot high up the wall

Answer:

AC = 28

Step-by-step explanation:

Ok, we know that:

Points A, B, and C are collinear.

Point B is between A and C.

We want to find the length AC (distance between A and C), if we know that:

AB = 16

BC = 12

Ok, knowing that B is between the other points, we know that:

AB + BC

defines the total length of the segment that connects the 3 points.

Thus, if we define this segment as a length, we only use the endpoints, A and C.

Then we have that:

AB + BC = AC

now we can solve this:

16 + 12 = AC

28 = AC

Answer:

5 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Think of this like a triangle.  From the bottom of the tower, to the top of the tower, to the point 3 miles away, and back to the bottom of the tower.

So we already have 2 side lengths. The height of the tower, 3 miles, and the base, 4 miles.  In order to find the 3rd length, the distance from the top of the tower to the point 4 miles away from the bottom, we need to apply the formula A squared + B squared = C squared.

We have A and B,  (3 and 4) and we need C.

A squared (3 squared) is 9

B squared (4 squared) is 16

so 9 + 16 = C squared

9 + 16 = 25

C squared = 25

square root of 25 is 5

C = 5

The distance from the top of the tower to the point 4 miles away is 5.
