The safety instructions for a 20 foot ladder say the ladder should not be inclined more than 70 degrees with the ground. suppose

Romashka [77]

Answer: the distance of the base of the house to the foot of the ladder is 6.84 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

The scenario is shown in the attached photo.

Right angle triangle ABC is formed when the ladder leans against the wall of the house.

AC = the height of the ladder

AB = x feet = distance of the base of the house to the foot of the ladder

BC is the wall of the building.

To determine x, we will apply trigonometric ratio

Cos # = adjacent/hypotenuse

Where

# = 70 degrees

Hypotenuse = 20

Adjacent = x

Cos 70 = x/20

x = 20cos70

x = 20 × 0.3420

x = 6.84 feets

2. A man drove 240 miles south at the rate of 60 miles per hour. On the return trip, he drove the rate of 40 miles per hour. The

shutvik [7]

$av = \frac{v_{2} - v_{1}}{t_{2} - t_{1}}$

$t_{1} = \frac{d}{v_{1}} = \frac{240}{60} = 4 \: hours \\ t_{2} = \frac{d}{v_{2}} = \frac{240}{40} = 6 \: hours$

$av = \frac{v_{2} - v_{1}}{t_{2} - t_{1}} = \frac{40 - 60}{6 - 4} = \frac{ - 20}{2} = - 10$

$av \: speed= 10 \\ av \: velocity = - 10 \: \: north$
