What should be the horizontal distance in feet for a ladder to the wall?

The best tip I've come to is that for every four feet of height you have to climb, move the base one foot away from the wall. Better still is to have someone foot the ladder, or to fasten the ladder with a rope, preferably near the top of the ladder to avoid the ladder sliding sideways.

12 feet. It is actually pretty easy, if you remember that a 3x4x5 triangle is always a right angle. divide by 3 and you have the 3 and 5 all you need is the four multiplied by 3.

Assuming you mean "foot of the ladder": Sqrt(144 - 81) ie sqrt 63 = 7 feet 11¼ inches. If you mean what you wrote then zero distance!
