Mathematics

Answer: 11.4 m

Step-by-step explanation:

The scenario depicted is that of a right angled triangle with the 7 meters being the base and the 9 meters being the height.

The length of the ladder will therefore be the Hypothenuse.

Using the Pythagorean Rule:

a² + b² = c²

with c being the hypothenuse

7² + 9² = c²

49 + 81 = c²

c²= 130

c = √130

c = 11.4 m

What is the lateral area of the drawing?
katrin2010 [14]

The lateral area of the shape is the sum of the area of all lateral faces.

The area of the lateral face that is rectangle with sides 5 mi and 2 mi is

A=5\cdot 2=10\ mi^2.

As you can see the shape has all four lateral faces of the same rectangular form with the same sides lengths, therefore,

LA=4A=4\cdot 10=40\ mi^2.

Answer: correct choice is B.
