A10 ft. ladder is resting against the wall. the ladder touches the ground 6 ft. away from the wall. what angle, rounded to the nearest tenth, is the bottom of the ladder making with the ground?

For this case we have a rectangle triangle where the hypotenuse is 10 feet and the base is 6 feet. It is asked to find the angle that is formed between the base of the triangle and the hypotenuse, which we will call "x".

We know that:

Substituting we have:

Rounding off we have:

53.1 degrees

Option C

image result for what is another name for consecutive interior angles? ​

when two lines are crossed by another line (called the transversal): the pairs of angles on one side of the transversal but inside the two lines are called consecutive interior angles. in this example, these are consecutive interior angles: d and f.
