According to the Pythagorean theorem, the square of the hypotenuse (the longest side) of a right-angled triangle equals to the sum of the squares of the other two sides. In this case, the ladder is the hypotenuse, which equals to the distance between the bottom of the ladder and the tree + the distance we want to find (x):
5² + x² = 13²
25 + x² = 169
x² = 144
x = √144 = 12.
The distance between the ground and the top of the ladder is 12 ft.
Answer:
Not only in mathematics, scientific proof also are required in the other field of science. Also maths proofs are of particular structure, containing steps and logics. So proving is like doing science, it is science. That's why it is important to prove.

Answer:
Kate = 52 seconds, Alexia = 58 seconds, Trina = 49 seconds
Step-by-step explanation:
A = K + 6
T = K - 3
K + A + T = 2 min 39 sec or 159 sec
K + (K + 6) + (K - 3) = 159sec
3K + 3 = 159sec
3K = 156sec
K = 52 sec
A = 52 + 6 = 58 sec
T = 52 - 3 = 49 sec

Step-by-step explanation:
The determinant of a matrix is a special number that can be calculated from a square matrix.
...
To work out the determinant of a 3×3 matrix:
Multiply a by the determinant of the 2×2 matrix that is not in a's row or column.
Likewise for b, and for c.
Sum them up, but remember the minus in front of the b.
