Answer:

25.61 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we can draw a picture (see attached picture). With the wall representing the rightmost line, and the ground representing the bottom line, the ladder (the hypotenuse) forms a 80 degree angle with the ground and the wall and ground form a 90 degree angle.

Without solving for other angles, we know one angle and the hypotenuse, and want to find the opposite side of the angle.

One formula that encompasses this is sin(x) = opposite/hypotenuse, with x being 80 degrees and the hypotenuse being 26 feet. We thus have

sin(80°) = opposite / 26 feet

multiply both sides by 26 feet

sin(80°) * 26 feet = opposite

= 25.61 feet as the height of the wall the ladder reaches

Who started the problem correctly? The problem form is (-5) - (-1 3/4).
Veronika [31]

Answer:

Shane started the problem correctly

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given problem (-5) - (-1 3/4).

Mariah started the problem as (-5) + 1 - 3/4

Shane started the problem as (-5) + 1 + 3/4

We need to find who started the problem correctly.

The problem should be started by converting the mixed fraction into improper fraction i,e

-5-(-1\frac{3}{4})\\=-5-(-1-\frac{3}{4} )\\=-5-(-\frac{7}{4})

Now we will solve bracket by multiplying -1 with term inside the bracket i.e

=-5+\frac{7}{4}

= \frac{-13}{4}

Let's compare both the procedures now:

Mariah:

(-5) + 1 - \frac{3}{4}

=(-5) - \frac{1}{4}

=\frac{-21}{4}

Therefore, Mariah did not start the problem correctly.

Shane:

(-5) + 1 + \frac{3}{4}

= -5 + \frac{7}{4}

= \frac{-13}{4}

Therefore, Shane started the problem correctly.
