100 POINTS! :) Please answer the question correctly WITH WORK...otherwise I will report! :)

Joshua has a ladder that is 12.8 ft long. He wants to lean the ladder against a verticle wall so that the top of the ladder is 11 ft above ground. For safety reasons, he wants the angle of the ladder no greater than 75 degrees. Will the ladder be safe at this height? Show your work.

So we'll use trig to solve this because it's a right triangle. The hypotenuse is the ladder (h) and the two smaller sides are the ground and the vertical wall (w).

That angle ladder makes with the ground = €

SOH: sin € = opposite/hypotenuse

No the ladder won't be safe!!!

Now let's make it safe:

The ladder's length (w) is constant, so stays 12

So now let's ask in an inequality what height will be safe (75° or less)

what does that mean?? well as long as you put the ladder against the wall so that the height from ground to top of the ladder is < 11.6 ft!!

Hope that helps! :-D
