Answer:

Solution given:

base=8ft

hypotenuse=17ft

perpendicular=?

By using Pythagoras law

hypotenuse ²=perpendicular ²+base²

17²=perpendicular ²+8²

perpendicular ²=17²-8²

perpendicular=\sqrt{225}=15

<h3>the distance between the ground and the top of the ladder, <u>x is 15ft.</u></h3>

Answer:

Pythagorean theorem:

x^2 = 17^2 - 8^2

x^2 = 225

x = sqrt(225) = 15

The distance is 15 ft

A) Two angles are adjacent if their measures add up to 90°.
slavikrds [6]

Answer:

A) False

B) False

Step-by-step explanation:

A. Two angles whose measures add up to 90° are said to be complementary, while two angles are adjacent when formed beside each other. So, adjacent angles might be complementary or supplementary. Thus, the answer to the first part of the question is false.

B. When two angles share a side, they are said to be adjacent to each other. But supplementary angles add up to 180^{o}. Since adjacent angles might be complementary or supplementary, then the answer to the second part of the question is false.
