Answer with explanation:

Length of ladder= 11 meter

Distance from foot of ladder to base of wall = 4 meter

Let height of Wall upto which Ladder reach = h meter

By using Pythagorean theorem

⇒(Length of ladder)²=(Height of Wall upto which Ladder reach)² + ( Distance from foot of ladder to base of wall)²

⇒(11)²=(Height of Wall upto which Ladder reach)²+4²

Subtracting 16 from both sides

⇒121 -16 = (Height of Wall upto which Ladder reach)²

⇒105 = (Height of Wall upto which Ladder reach)²

⇒ Height of Wall upto which Ladder reach

                           =\sqrt{105}\\\\=10.2469\\\\=10.25 \text{meter}

Use pythagorean theorem. 11m is the hypotenuse, while 4m is one of the legs. the wall should create a right angle with the ground which will allow for the pythagorean theorem. The height of where the ladder reaches will be named x.
x=<span>√11^2-4^2=10.25m.</span>

Answer:

A. addition property of equality; division property of equality

Step-by-step explanation:

  • 4\left(x-2\right)=6x+18    [ given ]
  • 4x - 8 = 6x +18       [ distributive property ]
  • -2x - 8 = 18             [ addition property of equality ]
  • -2x = 26                   [ addition property of equality ]
  • x = -13                    [ division property of equality ]

The complex numbers corresponding to the endpoints of one diagonal of a square drawn on a complex plane are 1 + 2i and -2 – i.
kodGreya [7K]
Technically the endpoints will be intersection of first endpoint between x=1 and y=-1second endpoint between x=-2 and y=2
so they are 1-i and -2+2i
