Step-by-step explanation:

From right angled ∆EBD,

Using the Pythagoras Theorem,

ED2 = EB2 + BD2

(5)2 = (EB)2 + (14)2 { BD = 1.4}

25 = (EB)2 + 1.96

(EB)2 = 25 –1.96 = 23.04

EB = √23.04 = 4.8

Now, we have,

EC = EB – BC = 4.8 – 4 = 0.8

Hence, the top of the ladder would slide upwards on the wall by a distance of 0.8 m.
