Answer:

8\sqrt{13}

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the pythagorean theorem (Assuming the house's walls are perpindicular to the ground):

a^2+b^2=c^2

we can find that 3=a and 29=c

3^2+b^2=29^2

9+b^2=841

b^2=832

b=\sqrt{832}

b=\sqrt{64*13}

b=8\sqrt{13}

That is the height that the ladder will reach
