Answer:

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

Step-by-step explanation:

given:

length of ladder = 10 m

height of the window from the ground = 8 m

distance of foot of the ladder from the wall = x

by pythagoras theorem,

(AC)² = (AB)² + (BC)²

10² = 8² + x²

100 - 64 = x²

x² = 36

x = 6 m

therefore the distance of the foot of the ladder from the wall = 6 m
