Answer 2

Answer:

Here's your answer

Step-by-step explanation:

Let AB be a vertical wall and AC = 10 m is a ladder. The top of the ladder reaches to A and distance of ladder from the base of the wall BC is 6 m.

In right Δ ABC

By PGT

AC² = AB² + BC²

10² = AB² + 6²

AB² = 10² - 6²

AB² = 100 - 36

AB² = 64

AB = √64

AB = 8m
