Question

a ladder of 13 m is placed in such a way that its foot is at a distance of 5m from a wall and its tip reaches a window above the ground. Determine the height of the window.​

Answer 1

Answer:

Height is 12 cm.

Step-by-step explanation:

Hypotenuse = 13 cm

Base = 5 cm

Perpendicular = x

A.T.Q

(13)² = (5)² + (x)²

169 = 25 + x²

169 - 25 = x²

144 = x²

12 = x
