a 15 foot ladder is leaning against a wall. the bottom of the ladder is 5 feet from the wall. to the nearest foot, how far up the wall does the ladder reach!! please help!! and show work
the formula for this would be the Pythagorean Theorem. This meaning a²+b²=c² so a²+15²=25, 15²=225, so a²+225=25, move the 225 over and a²=250, square root of 250 is 15.8 rounded up to 16 feet so, so a=16. but idk that might not be right
