Answer:
A
Step-by-step explanation:
these two triangles are similar
therefore corresping sides are proportionate
12/8=9/x
12x=72
x=72/12=6
Answer:
1/5
Step-by-step explanation:
-8-(-10) 2 1
---------- = ------ = --------
1-(-9) 10 5
Assume ladder length is 14 ft and that the top end of the ladder is 5 feet above the ground.
Find the distance the bottom of the ladder is from the base of the wall.
Picture a right triangle with hypotenuse 14 feet and that the side opposite the angle is h. Then sin theta = h / 14, or theta = arcsin 5/14. theta is
0.365 radian. Then the dist. of the bot. of the lad. from the base of the wall is
14cos theta = 14cos 0.365 rad = 13.08 feet. This does not seem reasonable; the ladder would fall if it were already that close to the ground.
Ensure that y ou have copied this problem accurately from the original.
