the base of the ladder is 34.88 feet from the building ⇒ 2nd answer
step-by-step explanation:
* lets explain how to solve the problem
- a 40-foot ladder is leaning against a building
∴ the length of the ladder is 40 feet
- it forms a 29.32° angle with the ground
∴ the angle between the base of the ladder and the ground
is 29.32°
- consider the building , the ground and the ladder form a right
triangle the building and the the ground are its legs and the
ladder is its hypotenuse
∴ the hypotenuse = 40 feet
- to find the distance from the building to the base of the ladder
use the cosine function because the distance between the
building and the base of the ladder is adjacent to the given angle
and we have the length of the hypotenuse
∵ cos ф = adjacent(d)/hypotenuse
∵ ф = 29.32°
∵ the length of the hypotenuse is 40
∴ cos(19.32) = d/40 ⇒ multiply both sides by 40
∴ d = 40 × cos(19.32) = 34.88 feet
* the base of the ladder is 34.88 feet from the building
