Answer:

70.5°

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve for the ladder's angle of elevation, we solve using the Trigonometric function of Cosine

= cos θ = Adjacent/Hypotenuse

Where

Adjacent = Distance of the base from the house = 10ft

Hypotenuse = Length of the ladder = 30 ft

cos θ = 10/30

cos θ = 1/3

θ = arc cos 1/3

θ = 70.528779366

Approximately = 70.5°

Therefore, the ladder's angle of elevation is 70.5°

jeyben [28]
First subtract 100v² from both sides to get:

C²L²=100c²-100v²

Then divide both sides by C²:

L²=(100c²-100v²)/C²

Then take the square root of both sides:

L=+ or - the square root of (100c²-100v²)/C²
