It form a right triangle
legnth of ladder is hypotonuse
bottom of ladder from wall distance is one leg
distance up wall is other leg
a^2+b^2=c^2
c=hypotonuse and a and b are legs
4^2+b^2=20^2
16+b^2=400
minus 16 both sides
b^2=384
sqrt both sides
b=8√6 ft
aprox
b=19.59ft from ground
Answer:
a is -3
Step-by-step explanation:
negative 3 minus 2 is negative 5 plus 3 is negative 2
Given:
In triangle ABC, point D is the centroid, and BD = 6.
To find:
The measure of side BE.
Solution:
We know that the centroid divides each median in 2:1.
In the given figure BE is a median and point D is the centroid. It means point D divides the segment BE in 2:1.
Let BD and DE are 2x and x respectively.
We have, BD = 6 units.
Now,
Therefore, the measure of side BE is 9 units.
Answer:
length of a single chain link = 5.33 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
Given data: chain contained 1000 chain links
total length was 0.0533km
<em>1km = 1000m </em>
<em> 1m = 100cm therefore 1km = 100000cm</em>
<em />
total length in cm = 0.0533* 100000
total length in cm = 5330 cm
length of a single chain link = 5330/1000
length of a single chain link = 5.33 cm
