Question

a ladder is placed along a wall of a house such that it's upper and is touching the top of the wall. the foot of the ladder is 9.5m away from the wall the ladder is making an angle of 60 degree with the level of the ground determine the length of the ladder.

plsss help me I'll mark your answer as brainliest​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

In triangle ABC , AB is the distance between wall and foot of ladder CB is length of ladder and CA is height of wall.

let AB be the distance between the foot of the ladder away from the wall.

AB= 9.5m

CB be the length of the ladder

CB= xm

length of ladder is ,

cos 60°= base

hypotenuse

2 = 9.5

x

x = 2× 9.5

x = 19m.

Therefore, length of the ladder is 19m .
