A 25 foot ladder and a 10 foot ladder are leaning against a building at the same angle,
and the base of the 25 foot ladder is 7.5 feet from the building. How far is the base of
the 10 foot ladder from the building?
First you want to divide 25 to 7.5 so that you can find out how far the ladder is if it was a foot-long your answer should be 3.33. Then you want to multiply the 3.33 to 10 and the answer would be 33.33
