Answer:
12 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
Sometimes, a simple drawing is a great way to start! In the attached drawing, the red line represents the ladder, the brown represents the ground, and the black represents the building!
We want to find the side of the triangle from where the ladder meets the building to where the building meets the ground. This can be found using trigonometric identities, namely sine:
Plug in known values:
Rearrange to isolate the variable:

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
eq of a line through (x1,y1) and slope m is
y-y1=m(x-x11)
y+3=3(x+4)
y+3=3x+12
y=3x+12-3
y=3x+9
You need LCD or the least common denominator. For 4 over 8 and 2 over 8 have the same denominators except for 2 over 4. You need to ask yourself what times 4 equals to 8? 4 times 2 equals to 8, so multiply 4x2 for the denominator and for the numerator multiply 2x2. Whatever you do to the denominator you have to do the same thing to the numerator. You multiplied 4x2 for the denominator and 2x2 for the numerator and now your fraction is 4 over 8. Now add 4 over 8+ 4 over 8 which is 8 over 8 or 1. Now add 1+ 2 over 8 which is 1 2/8. If you simplify 1 2/8 it will become 1 1/4.
Hope that helped:D
