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>

vaieri [72.5K]

Answer:

d=252m, u dint put the speed it was rolling at from point B to C so I could only solve for A to B. However if you use the formula below you can find the distance from B to C and add that to A to B giving the total distance rolled.

Step-by-step explanation:

d=vt

v=14m/s

t=18s

d= vt, (14m/s)(18s)

d=252m
