An 8 FT ladder is leaning against a wall If the foot of the ladder is 6.2 FT
from the
base of the wall how high
up the wall does the ladder
reach?

5.06 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

The ladder, the floor, and the wall form a right triangle.

One leg measures 6.2 ft. The hypotenuse measures 8 ft. We are looking for the height which is the other leg.

a² + b² = c²

a² + (6.2 ft)² = (8 ft)²

a² = 64 ft² - 38.44 ft²

a² = 25.56 ft²

a = 5.06 ft

13.33%

say 50 oranges, then 100 apples

80 are red, 20 are yellow

total fruit = 150

20chances out of 150 for yellow

20/150 = 13.33%
