Question

a ladder 24m long reaches a window of building 20m above the ground determine the distance of the foot of the ladder from building and find angle between them​

Answer 1

Answer:

the distance between them will be $\sqrt{176$ or 13.26

Step-by-step explanation:

use pythagoras theorem

(24)^2= 20^2 + x^2

576 = 400 + x^2

176 = x^2

= 13.26
