Answer:

a = 24.7 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use the Pythagorean theorem to solve this problem.

a^2 + b^2 = c^2 where a and b are the lengths and c is the hypotenuse

a = the unknown distance fro the building and b is the distance up the wall, and the hypotenuse is the length of the ladder

a^2 + 17^2 = 30^2

a^2 +289 = 900

Subtract 289 from each side

a^2 +289-289 = 900-289

a^2 =611

Take the square root of each side

sqrt(a^2) = sqrt(611)

a = 24.71841419

To the nearest tenth

a = 24.7 ft

Answer:

24.7 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a Pythagorean theorem question

The ladder is the hypotenuse or c

the distance from the wall is a leg or a

and the wall is the other leg or b

a² + b² = c²

a² + 17² = 30²

a²  + 289 = 900

        -289    -289

          b² = 611

         √        √

          b = √611

           b = 24.7 feet

Solve the equation below:
oee [108]
Remember the chain rule.
L(x)=f(g(x))

L'(x)=f'(g(x))g'(x)

take the derivative of f(g(x)). just treat them like they are variables. so you get:

h'=f'(g(x))g'(x)

now plug in your x value and evaluate:

h'(1)=f'(g(1))(g'(1))


substitute in values that you know and evaluate again
h'(1)=f'(3)(-3)

h'(1)=(-5)(-3)=15

Solve using the Pythagorean identity<br>​
Lynna [10]
<h3>\bold{Sin\theta_{1}=-\frac{4}{5}}</h3>

Answer:

Solution given

Cos\displaystyle \theta_{1}=\frac{3}{5}

consider Pythagorean theorem

\bold{Sin²\theta+Cos²\theta=1}

Subtracting Cos²\thetaboth side

\displaystyle Sin²\theta=1-Cos²\theta

doing square root on both side we get

Sin\theta=\sqrt{1-Cos²\theta}

Similarly

Sin\theta_{1}=\sqrt{1-Cos²\theta_{1}}

Substituting value of Cos\theta_{1}

we get

Sin\theta_{1}=\sqrt{1-(\frac{3}{5})²}

<h3>Solving numerical</h3>

Sin\theta_{1}=\sqrt{1-(\frac{9}{25})}

Sin\theta_{1}=\sqrt{\frac{16}{225}}

Sin\theta_{1}=\frac{\sqrt{2*2*2*2}}{\sqrt{5*5}}

Sin\theta_{1}=\frac{4}{5}

Since

In IVquadrant sin angle is negative

\bold{Sin\theta_{1}=-\frac{4}{5}}
