Answer:
Well, this would clearly form a right angled triangle such that the ladder is the Hypotenuse , the distance along the wall of the building is height till the window from the bottom which is the perpendicular in this case, so from Pythagoras' Theorem one can now find out the distance of the bottom of the ladder with the bottom of the building let's say that distance is 'd'.
So,
d = √ (15)^2 - (9)^2 = √225-81 = √144 = 12 metres.
Hope this helps you !

Answer:
(15)^2 = (9)^2 + (x)^2
225 =81+x^2
225-81=x^2
144=x^2
x=12
Step-by-step explanation:
The distance from the foot of the ladder and wall is 12m. MARK AS BRAINLIST.
