Answer:

<u>The correct answer is C. 14.6 feet</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

Information given to solve the case:

Length of the ladder = 15 feet

Distance from the base of the wall = 3.5 feet

Using the Pythagorean theorem for finding the height, because this is a right triangle:

h² = Length of the ladder ² - Distance from the base of the wall ²

h² = 15 ²  - 3.5 ²

h² = 225  - 12.25

h² = 212.75

h = √ 212.75

h = 14.59

<u>h = 14.6 feet (Rounding to one decimal place)</u>
