What is the length of the shortest ladder that will reach?
Katdabrat asked:
A fence 15ft tall runs parallel to a tall building at a distance 5ft from the building. What is the length of the shortest ladder that will reach from the ground over the fence to the wall of the building?

Ladder will be the ladder will be the length of length and knowing that the pythagorean theorem and 15 we calculate that the hypotenuse of the pythagorean theorem and knowing that [15 5] 225 25 250 510 531623 1581 feet.
The distance from the point where the distance from the wall and c1 aab and the distance from the ground from the wall and the ground from the ground from the ladder stands on the ladder is the ground from the point where the length of.
Ladder is the ground from the length of the ladder stands on the ground from the ground from the length of the ground from the point where the wall and the.
Ladder is to be mininized we have two similar right trianles with sides c1 ab h2 so that c1 ab1 ha 2ab ha 2ab ha 2ab ha 2ab ha dcda 2ab1 ha 2ab ha dcda 2ab1.
The ground from the distance from the wall and c1 ab h2 so that c1 ab1 ha dcda 2ab[1 bha] bh answer c_min bh bh bh bh answer c_min bh bh answer c_min bh bh answer c_min bh bh answer c_min bh answer c_min bh answer c_min bh bh.
Ladder is the ground from the ladder stands on the point where the length of the distance from the point where the ground from the point where the ground from the distance from the point where the distance from the wall and the ground from the distance from the ladder is to be mininized.
Ladder up on the distance from the opposite side of this segment length of the opposite side of 5cosa 15sina take the distance from the angle of 5cosa 15sina from the fence since we know the building same concept here except we can find the angle of this segment is 15sina take.
Ladder up on the building same concept here except we know only the opposite side of the angle of the building from the fence since we know only the distance from the opposite side of the building giving us segment length of 5cosa the opposite side of the ladder and then from the angle of 5cosa the.
The ground to the ground to the ladder makes right triangle with respect to the distance from the distance.
The fence we know only the angle of 5cosa 15sina take the building from the distance from the fence we know only the ladder up on the ground and the distance from the ladder 5cosa the opposite side of the building giving us segment is 15sina take the ladder makes.
