The distance between the building and the base of the ladder is 5√3 feet.
<u>Step-by-step explanation</u>:
<u>Consider a right angle triangle</u>,
- Hypotenuse = Paula leaned a 10 ft ladder against a building.
- Height = the top of the ladder is exactly 5 feet up in the building.
- Base = 'x' ft, distance between the building and the base of the ladder.
<u>From the Pythagorean theorem</u>,
Base, x = 
⇒ x = 
⇒ x = 
⇒ x = 
⇒ x = 5√3
The distance between the building and the base of the ladder is 5√3 feet.

Answer:
I can try
Step-by-step explanation:
Okay this equation really says is what is 30% of 248.
So, lets convert 30% to a fraction, 3/10 which is easier to work with.
All you have to do now is get out a calculator and do 248 *3/10 (or .3) and get 74.4
So subtract 74.4 and get
173.6
