Assume ladder length is 14 ft and that the top end of the ladder is 5 feet above the ground.
Find the distance the bottom of the ladder is from the base of the wall.
Picture a right triangle with hypotenuse 14 feet and that the side opposite the angle is h. Then sin theta = h / 14, or theta = arcsin 5/14. theta is
0.365 radian. Then the dist. of the bot. of the lad. from the base of the wall is
14cos theta = 14cos 0.365 rad = 13.08 feet. This does not seem reasonable; the ladder would fall if it were already that close to the ground.

Question:
A cinema can hold 270 people at one performance 5/9 of the seats were occupied of the occupied seats 40% we occupied by concessionary ticket holders.
What is the number of seats occupied by concessionary ticket holders?.
Answer:
60 seats
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
Number of seats = 270
Occupied Seats = 5/9
Concessionary ticket holders = 40% of occupied Seats
Required
The number of seats occupied by concessionary ticket holders
First the number of occupied seat has to be calculated.



Next is to determine the number of seats occupied by concessionary ticket holders.


Convert percentage to decimal


<em>Hence, 60 seats were occupied by concessionary ticket holders.</em>
