Assuming you mean "foot of the ladder": Sqrt(144 - 81) ie sqrt 63 = 7 feet 11¼ inches.

How far up a wall does a ladder reach that is 26 feet long and 10 feet from the base of a wall?
Regard the ladder as the hypotenuse and the distance from the wall as one leg of a right angled triangle. Then, 262 = 102 + H2 : where H is the height reached up the wall by the ladder. H2 = 676 - 100 = 576 : H = √576 = 24
