Answer:
12 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
Given : -
The length of a ladder (hypotenuse) = 15 cm
Height of window above the ground (height) = 9 cm
To Find :
the distance between the base of the wall and that of the ladder (base)
Solution :
According to Pythagoras Theorem,
(hypotenuse)² = (height)² + (base)²
(15)² = (9)² + (base)²
(base)² = (15)² - (9)²
(base)² = 225 - 81
(base)² = 144
base = 12 cm
