A ladder is inclined at only 23 degrees against the wall what the height of the ladder reaches up the wall

Mathematics
1 answer:
maw [93]3 years ago
7 0

Step-by-step explanation:

To determine what the height of the ladder reaches up the wall we need to know the height of ladder which is not provided in the question.

So if I assume the height of ladder to be 10ft( just a general assumption)

Then, inclined ladder, wall and distance been the bottom of the ladder and wall will form a right angle triangle.

where height of ladder will be hypotenuse, height of the ladder reaches up the wall will be perpendicular and distance been the bottom of the ladder and wall will be base.

Since, A ladder is inclined at 23 degrees against the wall

⇒ height of the ladder reaches up the wall  = Height of ladder×sin23°

= 10ft × sin23° = 3.9073 ft

Determine the measure of the missing angles. Show your work! Be ready to discuss your answer.
soldier1979 [14.2K]

For a.

Since there are already two angles given for the triangle, we can measure the last angle using this formula:

90 + 55 + a = 180

Now solve for "a".

90 + 55 + a = 180

145 + a = 180

a = 180 - 145

a = 35°

For b.

From the picture above, the two triangle's tip are touching and having to form <em>vertical angles. </em>This means that the angles are congruent to each other.

Now that we have two angles in the second triangle(35 and 120), we can use the same formula:

35 + 120 + b = 180

Now solve for "b":

35 + 120 + b = 180

155 + b = 180

b = 180 - 155

b = 25°
