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 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


How long must a ladder be to reach the top of a 20 foot wall if the ladder and the wall form a 32 degree angle at the top?

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


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.

A painter is standing at the base of a ladder that is leaning against the side of a house. What angle do the ladder and the house form?

The angle formed between the ladder and the house is typically a right angle (90 degrees) if the ladder is resting against the wall of the house. This assumes that the base of the ladder is on the ground and the wall is vertical. If the ladder is leaning at an angle, the specific angle would depend on how far the base of the ladder is from the wall and its height against the wall.

A painter is standing at the base of a ladder that is leaning against the side of a house What angle do the ladder and the house form?

It can be any angle that is more than zero degrees and less than 90 degrees. <><><> It will be an ACUTE angle, and if the ladder is placed properly (1 ft out for each 4 ft up) the angle between wall and ladder will be ABOUT 18 degrees.

What is the compliment of a 76 degree angle?

The complement of a 76-degree angle is found by subtracting it from 90 degrees. Therefore, the complement is 90 - 76 = 14 degrees. So, a 76-degree angle and a 14-degree angle together form a right angle.
