A ladder is leaning against a building so that the distance from the ground to the top of the latter is 1 foot less than the length of the latter find the length of the latter if the distance from the bottom of the ladder to the building is 9 feet

ladder is leaning against a building so that the distance from the ground to the top of the latter is 1 foot less than the length of the latter find the length of the latter if the distance from the bottom of the ladder to the building is 9 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Let :

Length of ladder = l

Height = l - 1

distance from the bottom of the ladder to the building, d = 9 feets

Lenght of ladder = hypotenus

l² = height² + distance²

l² = (l - 1)² + 9²

l² = l² + 1 + 9²

l² = l² + 1 + 81

l² = l² + 82

aloha~! my name is zalgo and i am here to you out on this gracious day. in order to compare the ratios easily, it is best that we simplify the question first. so, the cougars would have 6 wins for 5 losses, bobcats make 2 wins for 1 loss. bulldogs and tigers have a ratio where you can't simplify it. so, the team with the lowest rate would be the bobcats.

i hope that this ! : d
