We can use a modified form of the Pythagorean Theorem to find the length of x, also known as side b.
Pythagorean Theorem:
a^2 + b^2 = c^2
We can fill in the values of a^2 and c^2, and then solve for b.
14^2 + b^2 = 25^2
196 + b^2 = 625
Subtract 196 from both sides.
b^2 = 429
√ both sides.
b = 20.7
<h3>The value of x, or b, is equal to 20.7.</h3>
Assuming the house is parallel to the ground, your triangle is made up by the house, the ground, and the ladder. Using sin(x) = opposite/hypotenuse on the angle 70 degrees, you would have sin(70) = 20/x (because 20 is the side opposite of the angle connecting the ladder and the ground)
--> simplify sin(70) * x = 20 --> x = 20 / sin(70
--> substitute (and make sure your calculator in in degrees) x= 21. 284
Answer:
82.5
Step-by-step explanation:
The formula for the area of triangle is 1/2 B * H
1/2 of the base is 7.5
multiply that by 11
and you get
82.5
