If you add both 5.75 and 4.75, you'd get 10.5, so your answer is 10 and a half, so D.
We can assume that the point the ladder creates with the ground and building is a triangle. You can use the Pythagorean theorem to solve this.
A^2 + B^2 = C^2
The ladder is C, and the building can act as A or B, so for the purpose of this explanation, I’ll make it A.
11^2 + B^2 = 14^2
Figure out the squares
121 + B^2 = 196
Subtract 121 from both sides
B^2 = 75
Square root B^2 and 75
B = 5 root3
Step-by-step explanation:
step 1. pythagorean theorem is a^2 + b^2 = c^2 where a, b are the legs and c is the hypotenuse
step 2. 4^2 + 5^2 = c^2
Answer:
the denominator would be 1
Step-by-step explanation:
because 5 and 5/1 are equivalent
The other end point is 0,4
