A ladder is leaning against a wall If the angle is between the ground and the ladder at 60 degrees and the wall is 4m how long is the ladder Give exact values?
If the angle between the ladder and the ground is 60 deg, and you know the angle between the ground and the wall is 90 deg, then you have a 30-60-90 degree triangle, which is a common triangle. You should memorize this one. The commonest sides of this right triangle are 4-5-6, with the longest side being the hypoteneuse, in this case the ladder leaning from the ground to the wall. The wall is 4m high, the base of the ladder would be 5m out from the wall, and the length of the ladder is 6m.
A 10 foot ladder is leaning against a vertical wall the base of the ladder is 3 feet from the wall how high is the point where the ladder touches the wall?
13
A 5 foot ladder is leaning against a 4 foot wall how far must the bottom of the ladder be from the base of the wall so that the top of the ladder rests on the top of the wall?
1 i think other people feel free to change this
A 15 foot ladder is leaning against a 30 foot wallthe bottom end of the ladder is 9 feet from the wallhow many feet above the ground does the ladder touch the wall?
12 feet.
How long must a ladder be to reach the top of a 20 ft wall if the ladder and the wall form a 32 degree angle?
A ladder leaning against a 20ft wall, with an angle of 32 degrees with respect to the wall, must be 24ft long. cos(theta) = adjacent over hypotenuse cos(32) = 20 / hypotenuse hypotenuse = 20 / cos(32) hypotenuse = 23.58
