Answer:
6 m
Step-by-step explanation:
Distance from wall to foot of ladder AB = 6m
and
height of window BC = 8m
so ,
let lenght of ladder AC = x m
In triangle ABC
By pathogens therorm , we get
AC^2 = AB^2 + BC^2
x^2 = 6^2 + 8^2
x^2 = 36+64
x^2 = 100
X=10
so lenght of ladder AC IS 10 M
now the distance of foot of ladder from wall AB = 8m
and we know lenght of ladder AC = 10m
let height be y
Intriangle ABC
By pathogens theorm
AC^2 = AB^2 + BC^2
10^2 = 8^2 + y^2
100=64+ y^2
100-64 = y^2
36= y^2
Y=6
SO TIP REACH THE HEIGHT OF 6M
HOPE IT IS HELPFUL
