A45 foot ladder is leaning against a building. if the bottom of the ladder is 27 feet from the base of the building, how tall is the building, h, to the nearest foot?

For this case, we have to form a rectangular triangle. Where the hypotenuse is 45 feet and the base of the triangle is 27 feet. We must find the height.

By the Pythagorean theorem, we have that the height is given by:

Where:

h: Height

H: Hypotenuse

b: Base

Summarizing the values:

Thus, the height is 36 feet.

36 feet.

hey there!

if she's saving for six months, let's divide the total number we need for the trip by six, dividing it into the amount that needs to be saved for each month.

500 ÷ 6 =

she needs to save at least this amount each month, so we should use this symbol: ≥

let x be the amount she saves each month.

your final answer is x ≥
