You’ll want to draw a triangle if you imagine the ladder leaning against the building it forms a right triangle with height “a” being the distance from the ground to the window, and the hypotenuse “c” being the length of the ladder. We want to solve for base “b” and the distance between the foot of the ladder and the building
