A ladder is leaning against a vertical wall. The distance from the top of
the ladder to the base of the wall is 23 feet. The distance from the base
of the wall to the bottom of the ladder is 5 feet. What is the length of the
ladder (nearest tenth)?

Respuesta :

Answer:

23.5(to the nearest tenth)

Step-by-step explanation:

pythagoras theorem states

c^2= a^2+ b^2

a= 23

b=5

c^2= 529+25

c^2= 554

c= square root of 554

c = 23.5 (approximately)
