Question

A ladder lom long reaches a window which is 8 m above the ground on one side mf the road keeping its foot at the | some point, the ladder is turned to the other side of the road to reach a window 6 m high what is the width of road?​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

A ladder 10 m long reaches a window 8 m above the ground.

Concept Used:

Pythagoras's Theorem: In a right angled triangle with two sides a and b and the hypotenuse (the longest side) c:

a2 + b2 = c2

Calculation:

The ladder, the wall and the floor make a right angled triangle with the ladder being the hypotenuse.

Let the distance of the foot of the ladder from the base of the wall be x m.

Using the Pythagoras' Theorem, we get:

82 + x2 = 102

⇒ 64 + x2 = 100

⇒ x2 = 36

⇒ x = 6 m
