th of the ladder is 47 feet. What is the distance from the base of the wall to the bottom of the ladder? Provide an answer accurate to the nearest tenth.
Vol of sphere =4/3πr³ let the radius of cone be x. vol of cone =1/3πx²h when h=r, =1/3πrx² since they have the same volume, 4/3πr³=1/3πrx² 4πr³=πrx² x²=4r² x=2r (radius)
