Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The ladder forms a right angle triangle with the house and the ground. The length of the ladder represents the hypotenuse of the right angle triangle. The height, h from the top of the ladder to the base of the house represents the opposite side of the right angle triangle.

The distance from the bottom of the ladder to the base of the house represents the adjacent side of the right angle triangle.

To determine the height, h that the ladder reaches, we would apply

the Sine trigonometric ratio.

Sin θ = opposite side/hypotenuse. Therefore,

Sin 62 = h/12

h = 12Sin62

h = 12 × 0.8829

h = 10.6 feet

Someone please answer and explain this for me!

Hello!

To find our answer, we will want to multiply our circumference by 15. The reason why is because the circumference is the distance around the circle, or tire in this case. If it goes around 15 times it will have traveled this distance 15 times.

Therefore, we find our circumference, multiplying pi by our diameter. It appears that the total height is 26 in.

26\pi≈81.68

Note that it wants us to round for the nearest FOOT. Therefore, we divide our answer by 12 and round to the nearest whole number.

81.68/12≈6.81≈7

Therefore, it will have traveled 7 feet.

I hope this helps!
