A person throws a ball and it unfortunately gets stuck on top of a building. The building is 64.2 feet tall, and he will have to place a ladder on the ground at an angle of 46 degrees to reach the top of the building. How long does the ladder need to be to reach the top of the building?

To add to the confusion, a lot of ladders aren't labeled properly. When recently shopping, I discovered that the advertised height on the ladders I was looking at was about 20% less than the actual practical height of the ladder. Beware the small print!

Also, no matter how safe you are, note that 24' is a LOT higher from above than below. :) I recently cleaned the gutters on the 3 storey side of my house. Never again.

Step-by-step explanation:Why would you BUY a ladder you will use but once? Go rent, even contractors rent ladders. The rental companies make sure their equipment is safe. They will advise you because your success means less insurance costs. I have a problem with a homeowner climbing this high, not experienced and without protection/harnesses. You need to rent a fire truck? They also rent boom trucks but one has to prove competence. Whatever you are trying to DIY there are limits and this is definitely one I would have insisted you get a professional. I doubt that your home owner's would cover a fall.
