The angle of elevation of a ladder leaning against a wall is 60 degrees and the foot of the ladder is 4.6 m away from the wall. The length of the ladder is:

Answer 1

Answer:

length of the ladder is 9.2 m

Step-by-step explanation:

let the length of the ladder is X meter. using trigonometric identities we have

cos60= 4.6/X

X=4.6/cos60

X=4.6/0.5

X=9.2
