The base of a 14-foot ladder is 5 feet from a building, If the ladder reaches the flat roof, how tall is the building?

Answers

Answer 1
Using trigonometry you use cosine and get a final answer of 13.067 ft tall
Answer 2

The height of the wall of the building is 13.067 feet.

What is the Pythagorean theorem?

Pythagorean theorem states that in the right angle triangle the hypotenuse square is equal to the square of the sum of the other two sides. According to this statement, the areas of the squares on the other two sides add up to the size of the square whose side is the hypotenuse.

Given that the base of a 14-foot ladder is 5 feet from a building. The height of the building will be calculated as below:-

Applying the Pythagorean theorem to calculate the height of the building.

H² = P² + B²

14² = P² + 5²

P² = 14² - 5²

P = √171 = 13.07 feet

Therefore, the height of the wall of the building is 13.067 feet.

Answer:

x=15/19

Step-by-step explanation:

You have to start by multiplying the denominators by the numerators. I doesn't matter which you do first, as you can see, I chose to multiply the 6 by the 4x first.

Once that is completed, it is a simple matter of rearranging the equation so it begins with x=...

To do this, just subtract 5x and then divide by 19 on both sides to get the final fraction.

A recommended portion of Lee's muesli weighs 75g.
Lee's muesli contains 71% wheat and oats, 26.5% fruit and 2.5% nuts.
a What is the mass of wheat and oats in one portion of Lee's muesli?
b What is the mass of nuts in one serving of Lee's muesli?

Answers

Answer:

Total weigh = 75g

a) so the mass of wheat and oats one protion = 75*(71/100) g = 53.25g

b) the mass of nuts in one serving = 75*(2.5/100) g = 1.875g

The 7 (in bold) to the left of the other 7 is the hundreds digit.

1. Make all digits to the right of the hundreds digit 0.

4700

2. We need to find out if we end up with 4700 or 4800.

Since the digit just to the right of the hundreds digit is greater than 4 (it is the tens digit which is a 7), then the hundreds digit 7 must go up 1 to 8.
