Answer:

h = 19.6 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

A 20 ft ladder 4ft from the base of the wall.

The height of the ladder, H = 20 ft

The base distance, b = 4 ft

We need to find the height of the reach. Let it is P.

Using Pythagoras theorem,

H^2=b^2+P^2\\\\P=\sqrt{H^2-b^2}\\\\P=\sqrt{20^2-4^2}\\\\=19.59\ ft

or

P = 19.6 ft

So, the height is 19.6 ft.

Elina [12.6K]
The circle with center (h, k) and radius r has equation
.. (x -h)^2 +(y -k)^2 = r^2

You have
.. h = 2
.. k = 0
.. r = √5

The center is (h, k) = (2, 0).
