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: for a the answer is 140° and for b x=25°
Step-by-step explanation:
for a, when you have 2 parallel lines cut by a transversal,the corresponding angles are congruent. and the angle140 is congruent to the corresponding angle as they are vertical angles are congruent.
for b, angle x is congruent to the angle that is supplementary to 155 therefore 180-155=25°
Answer:
3000 people live in brainesville
Step-by-step explanation:
Population of brainville =2000
Grow rate of population per year =10%
10% of population =2000*10/100=200
Grow rate of 5 year=200*5=1000
After 5 year population of brainville is=2000+1000=3000
