Answer: 19.8 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
Use the Pythagorean Theorem formula to solve for how high the top of the ladder reach.
The formula says a^2 + b^2 = c^2
Where a and b are the two legs and C is the hypotenuse.
In this situation, the hypotenuse will be length of the ladder , and either a or b will be the length of the ladder from the building or the length of how long the ladder.
a will be 3 , and c will be 20. Input in the values into the formula and solve for b.
3^2 + b^2 = 20^2
9 + b^2 = 400
-9 -9
b^2 = 391
b =
b = 19.77371 round to the nearest tenth is , 19.8
Answer:
403.75
Step-by-step explanation:
we can write the following equation
.75m+145=price
we just need to plug in 345 for m
.75*345+145=price
put this into a calculator and get 403.75
parallel when a=2
perpendicular when a=-1/2
