The height of the isosceles triangle is 8.49 inches.
<h3>
How to find the height of the triangle?</h3>
Here we have a triangle such that two of the sides measure 9 inches, and the base measures 6 inches.
So this is an isosceles triangle.
We can divide the isosceles triangle into two smaller right triangles, such that the side that measures 9 inches is the hypotenuse, the base is 3 inches, and the height of the isosceles triangle is the other cathetus.
By Pythagorean's theorem, we can write:
(9in)^2 = (3 in)^2 + h^2
Where h is the height that we are trying to find.
Solving that for h we get:
h = √( (9 in)^2 - (3in)^2) = 8.49 inches.
We conclude that the height of the isosceles triangle is 8.49 inches.

Letter B would be the correct answer
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The ladder forms a right angle triangle with the building and the ground. The length of the ladder represents the hypotenuse of the right angle triangle. The height, h from the top of the ladder to the base of the house represents the opposite side of the right angle triangle.
The distance from the foot of the ladder to the base of the house represents the adjacent side of the right angle triangle.
To determine the height, h that the ladder reaches, we would apply Pythagoras theorem which is expressed as
Hypotenuse² = opposite side² + adjacent side²
15² = 9² + h²
225 = 81 + h²
h² = 225 - 81 = 144
h = √144 = 12 feet
