The length of the ladder  = 6.5077 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Given A ladder leans against the side of a house

Given the angle of elevation of the ladder is 68° when the bottom of the ladder is 16 ft from the side of the house

Let 'C' be the point of observation.

Given CA= 16 ft

 From right angle triangle

     

     

     x = 16 × cos 68°

    x = 16 × 0.4067

    x = 6.5077

  x = 6.5 ft

The length of the ladder = 6.5 ft
