Jane is using a ladder to paint under a window of her house. The straight line distance from the bottom of the window to the ground is 6ft. (leg a). The bottom of the ladder is 5 ft. From the house (leg b). How tall must the ladder be to reach the window. You are finding "c".

Step-by-step explanation:

The ladder forms a right angle triangle with the wall. The straight line distance from the bottom of the window to the ground forms the opposite side. The distance from the bottom of the ladder to the house represents the adjacent side. To determine the required length of the wire, c, we would Pythagorean theorem which us expressed as

Hypotenuse² = opposite side² + adjacent side²

Therefore,

c² = 6² + 5² = 36 + 25 = 61

c = √61 = 7.81 ft

given that triangle abc is transformed two times to get triangle

a"b"c"

first abc is transformed in to a'b'c' as follows:

the coordinates of a are (1,-1) and transformed into a'(-1,1)

similarly b (4,-2) became b'(-4,2) and

c(7,-2) became c'(-7,2)

i.e. (x,y) becomes (-x,-y)

this is nothing but reflection about a point here origin.

thus first transformation is reflection on the origin.

next is exactly shifting 3 units down

3< x< 5

step-by-step explanation:

|x - 4| < 1

there are two solutions, one positive and one negative.   remember to flip the inequality when taking the negative solution

x-4 < 1       x-4 > -1

add 4 to each side

x-4+4 < 1+4       x-4+4 > -1+4

x< 5                 x> 3

3< x< 5
