Question

A ladder rests against a wall of 24 meter high. The foot of a ladder is 7 meters from the foot of the wall. Calculate the length of the ladder

Answer 1

Answer:

25

Step-by-step explanation:

because,there wall is opposite side ,ladder is hypotenuse and ground surface is adjacent side that makes an right angled triangle

by applying pythagoras theorem

24^2+7^2=x^2 (x is hypotenuse)

576+49=x^2

625=x^2

x =25

hope this helps u
