Answer:

The ladder meets the wall at 17.29 feet from the ground.

Step-by-step explanation:

Pythagorean Theorem ⇒ a^2 + b^2 = c^2

5^2 + b^2 = 18^2

25 + b^2 = 324

b^2 = 299

b = 17.291616

Simplify the given expression below 4/3-2i
ANTONII [103]
So-called simplifying, really means, "rationalizing the denominator", which is another way of saying, "getting rid of that pesky radical in the bottom"


\bf \cfrac{4}{3-2i}\cdot \cfrac{3+2i}{3+2i}\impliedby \textit{multiplying by the conjugate of the bottom}
\\\\\\
\cfrac{4(3+2i)}{(3-2i)(3+2i)}\implies \cfrac{4(3+2i)}{3^2-(2i)^2}\implies \cfrac{4(3+2i)}{3^2-(4i^2)}\\\\
-------------------------------\\\\
recall\qquad i^2=-1\\\\
-------------------------------\\\\
\cfrac{4(3+2i)}{3^2-(4\cdot -1)}\implies \cfrac{4(3+2i)}{9+4}\implies \cfrac{12+8i}{13}\implies \cfrac{12}{13}+\cfrac{8}{13}i
