Answer:

78.5°

Step-by-step explanation:

We solve for the above question, using the formula for the Trigonometric function of Cosine

cos θ = Adjacent/Hypotenuse

Adjacent = The distance between the house and the base of the ladder = 4 feet

Hypotenuse = Length of the Ladder = 20 feet

Hence,

cos θ = 4/20

θ = arc cos(4/20)

θ = 78.463040967°

Approximately = 78.5°

Therefore, the angle that the ladder makes with the ground is 78.5°

denis-greek [22]

Hi there! Hopefully this helps!

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

<h2>Answer: 12</h2><h2>~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~</h2>

First we need to <em><u>substitute the value of the variable into the expression</u></em> and simplify.

b-(b+a×4c÷4) = 1 - (1 + -6 × 4(2) ÷ 4).

Now we need to solve 1 - (1 + -6 × 4(2) ÷ 4).

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

1 - (1 + -6 × 4(2) ÷ 4)

|

|  First, we cancel out 4 and 4.

\/

1 - (1 - 6 × 2)

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Next, we multiply -6 and 2 to get -12.

1 - (1 - 12)

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Then we subtract 12 from 1 to get -11.

1 - (-11)

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The opposite of -11 is 11.

1 + 11.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

<h2 /><h2>Add 1 and 11 to get, you guessed it, 12!</h2>
