Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
Please refer to the attached diagram. (Apologies if the shading or resolution is a bit off.)
So, we want to find θ.
Since we formed a right triangle, we can use right triangle ratios.
We know the measure of the adjacent side to θ and the hypotenuse.
Therefore, we will use the cosine ratio:

The adjacent side is 2 and the hypotenuse is 15. By substitution:

Now, we will take the inverse cosine of both sides. So:

Use a calculator. Hence:

The angle between the ground and the ladder is about 82.34°.
3.65 e8
Step-by-step explanation:
The scientific notation e mean ‘10 raised to a particular power’. Therefore e8 is equivalent to 10 ^ 8.
We count the number of tens to the decimal point. In this case;
365000000
3.65000000
The decimal is <u>8</u><u> place values </u>from the right (since this is a whole number)
