Use Pythagorean Theorem of a^2 + b^2 = c^2 where a and b are the legs of the triangle set up by the house height and the ground, and c is the hypotenuse or how long the ladder is. C is going to be our unknown.
Just plugging in you get 25^2 + 35^2 = c^2. Simplify to 625 + 1225 = c^2. Simplify again to 1850 = c^2. The square root both sides to isolate the variable c. C = sqrt(1850) or approximately 43.0116 feet if rounded to 4 decimal places.
The ladder is approximately 43.0116 feet long.
Answer:
24
Step-by-step explanation:
5% of the kids are in health. I got this from simplifying 3/60 which is 1/20
After that, i set up this equation: 1/20 times x/100
I would then divide 20 and 100 to get 5 and that’s basically what I did
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
6x^2+5x+1=0
Descr= b^2-4ac
Descr= 25-24=1
X1= (-b+√descr)/2a = (-5+1)/12= -1/3
X2= (-b-√descr)/2a = (-5-1)/12= -1/2
