Atree forms a right angle with the ground. if you place the base of a 12-foot ladder 3ft from the tree, how high up the tree will it reach?

12.37ft

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula to find the missing side of a triangle is a^2 + b^2 = c^2

so all you have to do is put 3 and 12

3^2 + 12^2 = c^2

9 + 144 = c^2

153 = c^2

√153 = 12.37

"standard form:

3x2 + 14x − 10 = 0

solutions based on quadratic formula:

x1   = −14 − √ 142 − 4×3×(−10) /   2×3   = −14 − 2 × √ 79 /   6   ≈ −5.296

x2   = −14 + √ 142 − 4×3×(−10) /   2×3   = −14 + 2 × √ 79 /   6   ≈ 0.629

$205,000 here you go i had to guess it but i got it correct so yeah
