A 10 meter ladder was placed on an angle. The base of the ladder is 5 meters away from the building along the ground.
Write an equation to determine the height, h, of the building.

5^2 + h^2 = 10^2

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a clear example of the Pythagorean Theorem, a relation of all sides in a right triangle. The equation itself is a^2 + b^2 = c^2. By simply plugging in the given values into the triangle, you would get the answer.

To determine the height we will use a² = b²+c²

(10m)²= (5m)²+(h)²

<=> 100m²=25m²+h²

<=> 100m²-25m²=75m²=h²

<=> √ 75m² = h = 8,660m

hi there!

first we need to find out how much they are adding to each number to make the next number.

ex: 4 + 4 = 8, 8 + 8 = 16, and so on.

so continuing with 32,

32 + 32 = 64

64 + 64 = 128

128 + 128 = 256

256 + 256 = 512

4, 8, 16, 32, 64, 128, 256, 512

the 8th term of the sequence will be 512

hope this ! ~
