9514 1404 393

Answer:

  50 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

The side lengths in a 30-60-90 triangle have the ratios 1 : √3 : 2. The longest side is 2 times the length of the shortest side.

In this geometry, that means the length of the escalator is 2 times its height, so is ...

  x = 2(25 ft)

  x = 50 ft . . . . . distance a person travels

A 14 foot ladder is placed against a wall. It is placed 5 feet from the base of the wall.
Vladimir [108]

Answer:

c = 18.47

Step-by-step explanation:

This would create a triangle in which the length of the wall would be the missing side. We can use the Pythagorean Theorem to find this:

1. a^{2} + b^{2} = c^{2}

2. 5^{2} + 14^{2} = c^{2}

3. 25 + 196 = c^{2}

4. 221 = c^{2}

5. \sqrt{221} = c

6. 18.47 = c
