If you place a 50-foot ladder against the top of a 14-foot building, how many feet will the bottom of the ladder be from the bottom of the building?

The measure of bottom of ladder from bottom of building is 48 .

Step-by-step explanation:

Given as :

The length of the ladder = l =  50 foot

The height of the building = h = 14 foot

Let The measure of bottom of ladder from bottom of building = x foot

Now from figure

The figure is of right angled triangle

So,

Hypotenuse² = perpendicular² + base²

Or, OB² = AB² + OA²

Or, OA² = OB² - AB²

Or,  x² = (50)² - (14)²

Or,  x² = 2500 - 196

Or,  x² = 2304

∴  x =

I.e x = 48

So,The measure of bottom of ladder from bottom of building = x = OA = 48 foot  .

Hence, The measure of bottom of ladder from bottom of building is 48 . Answer

the distance from any point on the parabola to the focus is the exact same as the distance from that point to the directrix.

if you could provide answer choices that might allow me to answer the question easier if my above answer isn't an option! (:
