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

jamal is making pancakes. He has 6 3/4 cups of batter, but he needs a total of 12 cups. How much more batter does Jamal need?
vampirchik [111]
Jamil has already 6 3/4 cups of butter.
He need 12. SO in order to get the needed butter, we subtract 6 3/4 to 12.

= 12 - 6 3/4
= 11 4/4 - 6 3/4
= 5 1/4

So Jamil needs 5 1/4 cups of butter to achieve the 12 cups.
