A 12-foot extension ladder, when fully extended, reaches a maximum height of approximately 12 feet. However, the actual reach can be affected by the angle at which the ladder is placed against a wall or surface. Generally, to ensure safety and stability, it is recommended to set the ladder at a proper angle, which might reduce the vertical reach slightly.
What else can I help you with?
How long must a ladder be to reach the top of a 20' wall if the ladder and the wall form a 32 degree angle at the top?
Then an angle of 58 degrees will be at the bottom of the ladder. Use trigonometry and the sine ratio: sin = opp/hyp and hyp = opp/sin hyp = 20/sin(58) = 23.58356807 length of ladder = 24 feet to the nearest foot
How long must a ladder be to reach to top of a 20 foot wall if the ladder and the top wall form a 32 degree angle at the top in a plus?
The ladder forms the hypotenuse (r) and the wall forms the vertical (y) of a right triangle. sin theta = y / r the angle at the bottom is (90 - 32) = 58 sin 58 = 20 / r r = 20 / sin 58 = 23.583568067241928552025478405751 feet ladder must be about (rounding) 23.6 feet long.

23.58 feetA+no its not i just tryed it so yea get your facts right before putting them on herebut i dont even know this so srry for the ppl look for it
A 12-foot extension ladder is placed against a wall To achieve the proper climbing angle approximately how far should the bottom of the ladder be from the base of the wall?
I've heard it said that the vertical should be 4 times the size of the base (of the right angle triangle). Therefore if a 12 foot ladder would reach about an 11 foot vertical, it would be placed just under 3 feet from the wall.I've also seen it said that the angle should be 75.5 degrees.Personally I do not agree with an absolute. At heights under 10 feet, your center of gravity (especially if you are a very large person) might cause the ladder to move away from the wall while you are climbing, therefore a more shallow angle may be appropriate.At heights over 20 feet, I like to ensure good pressure against the wall when I am at the top. This feels more secure on a windy day. A more shallow angle can help, but ONLY if the base of the ladder is braced. For instance I've braced the bottom against a big tree, or a long plank that spans between the two wheels of a car.At heights over 25 feet especially you've just got to rule out all variables because it only takes one fall in a thousand trips up a ladder to end your fun (income, health, life). Stand back and look at your angles, test how the ladder feels as you go up, adjust as many times as you have to, brace the bottom, tie off the top, never compromise.

How can I safely access the roof using a ladder extension?
To safely access the roof using a ladder extension, make sure the ladder is long enough to reach the roof and is securely placed on a stable surface. Extend the ladder at least 3 feet above the roof edge for stability. Use proper ladder safety techniques, such as maintaining three points of contact and facing the ladder while climbing. Have someone hold the ladder at the base for added stability.

13 feet
How can I safely put a ladder on a sloped roof?
To safely put a ladder on a sloped roof, use a ladder stabilizer or standoff to keep the ladder stable and prevent it from slipping. Make sure the ladder is long enough to extend at least 3 feet above the roof edge for proper support. Position the ladder at the correct angle, with the base of the ladder 1 foot away from the wall for every 4 feet of ladder height. Always have someone hold the ladder while you climb for added safety.
A boat has a rope ladder attached to it. The ladder goess 1 foot into the water. It starts to rain. It rains 1 inch of water per 45 mins. How long will it take until the ladder is 3 ft into the water?
The boat rises as the water rises so the ladder will always be 1 foot in the water.
A rope ladder hangs over the side of a boat The rungs are 1 foot apart and the ladder is 8 feet long?
Remember the boat rises with the tide!
