Answer:

77.975degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following;

Length of the ladder = 12foot (Hypotenuse)

Distance from the wall to the base of the ladder = 2.5feet (adjacent)

Using the SOH CAH TOA identity;

Cos theta = adjacent/Hypotenuse

Cos theta = 2.5/12

Cos theta = 0.2083

theta = arccos (0.2083)

theta = 77.975

Hence the angle that the ladder makes with the ground is 77.975degrees

Find the slope between these two points!
Citrus2011 [14]

Answer:

m =  \frac{d - b}{c - a}  \: where \: c \ne \: a

Step-by-step explanation:

We use the slope formula:

m =  \frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

The slope or gradient is not very difficult to calculate.

The given points are:

A(a,b) and B(c,d)

We substitute these points into the formula to get:

m =  \frac{d - b}{c - a}  \: where \: c \ne \: a

Note that this is also the same as:

m =  \frac{b - d}{a- c}  \: where \: c \ne \: a
