Answer:

12.4 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

A ladder placed against the wall forms a right angle triangle

Hypotenuse ² = opposite ² + adjacent ²

Hypotenuse = 13 feet

Opposite = 4 feet

Adjacent = x

Hypotenuse ² = opposite ² + adjacent ²

13² = 4² + x²

169 = 16 + x²

169 - 16 = x²

153 = x²

Find the square root of both sides

√153 = √x²

12.369316876852 = x

x = 12.4 feet

Adjacent = x = 12.4 feet

in steps

Step-by-step explanation:

DE // BC

m∠ADE = m∠ABC   and m∠AED = m∠ACB

∴ ΔADE similar to ΔABC

AB/AD = AC/AE

(AD + DB) / AD = (AE + EC) / AE

AD/AD + DB/AD = AE/AE + EC/AE

1 + DB/AD = 1 + EC/AE

DB/AD = EC/AE    (AD/DB = AE/EC)

nekit [7.7K]

Answer:

A) 27 = b + 9

b=18

Step-by-step explanation:

When given a balanced scale (represented by a hanger in this image), the sum of the values on one side equals the value on the other side. Thus, the equation that this hanger represents is the following:

27 = b + 9

Use inverse operations to solve this equation,

27 = b + 9

-9

18 = b
