Question

A ladder makes an angle of 60 degree with the ground when placed against a wall. If the foot of the ladder is 2m away from the wall then find the length of the ladder

Answer 1

Hey mate !!!

here is your answer!!!

using the formula

tan 60° = perpendicular / base

√3 = perpendicular / 2

perpendicular = √3 x 2

=> 2√3

hence the length of ladder is 2√3

now the length of ladder is

( Length of ladder)² = ( 2√3)² + 2 ²

√ 4 x 3 + 4

√16

=> 4

hope it helps you dear!!!

$thanks$
