1. Use precise mathematical language to justify and explain each mathematical process. A ladder is placed against a wall to reach the highest window of a house. A right angle is formed
by the wall of the house and the ground.
1. Sketch a diagram to represent the situation.
2. If the ladder is 20 feet long and the window is 12 feet high, how far is the base of the ladder
from the wall?
3. Could a 15 foot ladder be placed at the same 12 feet high window, but 10 feet from the house?
Justify your answer.
