Aimee was hiking and the trail started at 92 yard below sea level. the first stop on the trail was up 63 yards. what is the altitude of the first stop ?

29 because 92 yards minus 63 yards because it was going up equals 29 yards

Given w
you know the value of the height of the wall, and the distance between the foot of the ladder from the wall, you can conveniently find the length of the ladder...
using the Pythagorean theorem
the length therefore equals
√[(height of wall) ² + (distance of ladder from wall) ²]
= √[ 8² + 12²]
= √64+144 = √208
≈14.42 ft

this is a real life application of the Pythagorean theorem
