Use trigonometry and the sine ratio:
sin = opp/hyp
sin = 2/5
sin-1(2/5) = 23.57817848 or 23.6 degrees to 1 dp
Angle with the horizontal = 23.6 degrees
Angle with the vertical wall = 66.4 degrees

Latitude. It may be helpful to think of a ladder when trying to remember this, as Ladder sounds similar to latitude, and ladders have many horizontal bars.
Yes, the compound word "ladderback" is formed by combining "ladder" and "back." In this context, "ladderback" typically refers to a type of chair or a design featuring horizontal slats resembling a ladder on the backrest.
If h is vertical height, b=horizontal distance from wall to bottom of ladder and l=lenght of ladder,we can say lsquared = hsquared + b squared. Now differentiate w.r.t. time t. 2l*dl/dt= 2h* dh/dt + 2b*db/dt =0 However this solution doesn't give exactly the same answer when one solves the problem geometrically or using simple pythagorus. For example ,if l=20m and b=12 m and h=16m and db/dt is 2m/s, I calculate dh/dt as !.5 m/s using calculus but 1.717 m/s using geometry or straight Pythagorus. Where is the fallasy inthe method using calculus? Ray Bevan
You want to clean some leaves out of a gutter on your roof. The gutter is 8m above the ground. You want the top of the ladder to rest against the wall no more than 50cm below the gutter. You don't want the ladder to make an angle any steeper than 80 degrees from the horizontal. What is the shortest ladder you coud use?
Ladder rungs are typically horizontal, meaning they are perpendicular to the vertical side rails of the ladder. Each rung is parallel to the ground when the ladder is in use.
Its pythagoras: 102 - 52 = vertical height2. So 100-25 = vertical height2. Then the square root of 75 must = vertical height. Which makes the top of the ladder 8.66 feet (8ft 8 inches) from the ground.
Steps on a ladder are called rungs because they typically run horizontally between the two vertical sides of the ladder. The term "rung" originally referred to a crosspiece in a ladder framework. Over time, this term became commonly used to describe the horizontal steps on a ladder.

It is a horizontal line of ladder logic.Ladder logic is a language used to program PLC's.It's called Ladder Logic because the programs are formed in the shape of a ladder. Each horizontal line in the program looks like the "rung" of a ladder, which is why they call it Ladder Logic.
A ladder can be considered an inclined plane because it forms a sloping surface that allows for easier vertical movement. By leaning the ladder against a wall or structure, it creates an angle which reduces the effort required to climb compared to climbing straight up. Just like an inclined plane, a ladder allows someone to use less force to overcome the vertical height.

The preposition in the sentence is "against." The ladder was leaning against the roof.
