The formula that relates the length of a ladder, L, that leans against a wall with distance d from the base of the wall and the

height h that the ladder reaches up the wall is L = StartRoot d squared + h squared EndRoot. What height on the wall will a 15-foot ladder reach if it is placed 3.5 feet from the base of a wall?

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula that relates the length of a ladder, L, that leans against a wall with distance d from the base of the wall and the height h that the ladder reaches up the wall is L = StartRoot d squared + h squared EndRoot. What height on the wall will a 15-foot ladder reach if it is placed 3.5 feet from the base of a wall?

L = √d² + h²
