To determine how high the ladder reaches, we can use the Pythagorean theorem. The ladder forms a right triangle with the height of the building and the distance from the building to the base of the ladder. In this case, the ladder is the hypotenuse (6 meters), the base is 1 meter, and we need to find the height (h). Using the formula ( h = \sqrt{6^2 - 1^2} = \sqrt{36 - 1} = \sqrt{35} \approx 5.92 ) meters. Thus, the ladder reaches approximately 5.92 meters up the building.

30 feet. And you don't have to round it to the nearest foot. It's exactly 30 feet.
