The situation forms the right triangle above:
Where x is the length of the ladder.
Apply the Pythagorean theorem:
c^2 = a^2 +b^1
where:
c = hypotenuse = longest side = x
A &b = the other 2 legs of the triangle
Replacing:
x^2 = 60^2 + 15^2
Solve for x
x^2 = 3,600 + 225
x^2 = 3,825
x =√3,825
x = 61.85 ft
