Given:
- Length of ladder = 10 m
- Hieght of wall = 6 m
To find:
- Distance of foot of ladder from wall = ?
Solution:
If we visualize the situation we can see a right - angled triangle !
There's a wall 6 m high and a ladder standing with the help of wall and making a right - angled triangle. If we analyze the situation the hypotenuse of the triangle BC be 10 m and the hight of triangle AB be 6 m. We have to calculate the the base of the triangle i.e, AC.
Just apply the Pythagoras theorem !
==> (BC)^2 = (AB)^2 + (AC)^2
==> (BC)^2 - (AB)^2 = (AC)^2
(put the values)...
==> 8 m = AC
Hence, the distance between the foot of ladder from the wall is 8 meters.
Hope it helped you dear...
