A14 foot ladder is leaning against a building the base of the ladder is 5 feet away from the building how high up the building does the ladder reach

a^2+b^2=c^2

Step-by-step explanation:

5^2+b^2=14^2

25+b^2=196

subtract 25 from both sides

b^2=171

take square root of 171

b=13.1

the ladder reaches 13.1 feet up the building

-14

step-by-step explanation:

2x2 – 2(x+4)

=2x2-2（5+4）

=4-2×9

=4-18

=-14

a - base

b - exponent

so,
