Answer:

8.66 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming that the building is completely straight, a right angle is formed and therefore a right triangle.

Thanks to this we can calculate the height at which the ladder reaches the wall using the Pythagorean theorem, this height being one of the legs.

We have to:

c ^ 2 = a ^ 2 + b ^ 2

c = 10

a = 5

replacing

b ^ 2 = 10 ^ 2 - 5 ^ 2

b ^ 2 = 75

b = 8.66

that is to say that the height at which the ladder reaches the wall is 8.66 meters

Which of the following is a solution to sin(x/2) = radical 3/2
Vinvika [58]

Answer:

sin ( x/ 2 )  =  - √ 3 /2

Take the inverse sine of both sides of the equation to extract  x

from inside the sine.

x/ 2 = arcsin ( − √ 3/ 2 )

The exact value of  arcsin ( − √ 3 /2 )  is  − π /3 .

/x 2 = − π /3

Multiply both sides of the equation by  2 .

2 ⋅ x /2 = 2 ⋅ ( − π /3 )

Simplify both sides of the equation.

x = − 2 π /3

The sine function is negative in the third and fourth quadrants. To find the second solution, subtract the solution from  2 π , to find a reference angle. Next, add this reference angle to  π  to find the solution in the third quadrant.

x /2 = 2 π + π/ 3 + π

Simplify the expression to find the second solution.  

x = 2 π /3  

4 π

Add  4 π  to every negative angle to get positive angles.  

x = 10 π /3

The period of the  sin ( x /2 )  function is  4 π  so values will repeat every  4 π  radians in both directions.

x =2 π /3 + 4 π n , 10 π/ 3 + 4 π n , for any integer  n

Exclude the solutions that do not make  sin ( x /2 ) = − √ 3/ 2  true.

x = 10 π /3 + 4 π n , for any integer  n
