How long is the ladder?Draw a picture of the right triangle described.Label the side lengths of the triangle that are given.Label the missing side length x.Solve for x in the equation above. Round to the tenths place.

Answer :

Ok, here we have the pic, now we are going to find "x" using the Pythagoras theorem;

[tex]x^2=2.5^2+10^2[/tex][tex]x^2=6.25+100=106.25[/tex][tex]x=\sqrt[\square]{106.25}[/tex][tex]x\approx10.3[/tex]

the ladder have a long (x) aproximately of 10.3ft.
