Question

A ladder is placed with one edge on the wall 15 metre above the ground and the other end on the ground 8 away from the word what is the length of the Ladder

​

Answer 1

Answer:

We have,

Let the length of ladder=x m

Now, distance between foot of ladder and wall=5m

Height of the window from to ground=12m

∴ By using the hypotenuse theorem

∴x

​  

 

x=  

169

​  

 

x=13

Length of the ladder is 3m

Hence, this is answer.
