Given

Length of the ladder = 10m

Height of window = 8m

Let the distance of the foot of the ladder from the base of the wall be = x

since the wall is perpendicular to the ground, it forms a right angled triangle

using Pythagoras theorem

(Hypotenuse)² = (height)² × (base)²

10² = 8² + x²

100 = 64 + x²

x² = 100 - 64

x² = 36

x = 6m

The distance of the foot of the ladder from the base of the wall = 6m
