The bottom of a ladder must be placed 4 feet from a wall. The ladder is 12 feet long. How far above the ground does the ladder touch the wall? Estimate your answer to the nearest tenth.

Height of wall (Perpendicular) = 11.31 ft (Approx)

Explanation:

Given:

Base Distance (Base) = 4 feet

Height of ladder (Hypotenuse) = 12 feet

Find:

Height of wall (Perpendicular)

Computation:

Perpendicular = √Hypotenuse² - Base²

Height of wall (Perpendicular) = √12² - 4²

Height of wall (Perpendicular) = √144 - 16

Height of wall (Perpendicular) = √128

Height of wall (Perpendicular) = 11.31 ft (Approx)

explanation:

no diagram was provided, but i'm guessing it's the one i've attached to my answer.

here, a mechanical force turns the rod.   this generates an electric current in the coil, which powers the bulb.
