A ladder is 8 meters long. It leans against a wall with one end on the ground, 6 meters from the wall. The other end reaches a windowsill. Calculate the height of the window sill above the ground.

Step-by-step explanation:

a^2 + b^2 = c^2.

if you draw out the triangle, you can substitute numbers into an equation.

6^2 + b^2 = 8^2

36 + b^2 = 64

b^2 = 64 - 36

b^2 = 28

b =

well my understanding of this question is they want you to use the y=14.1x -2.3 and put the coordinates they gave you onto the line segment of   y=14.1x -2.3

step-by-step explanation:

the length of o'p' is .

step-by-step explanation:

it is given that the quadrilateral m'n'o'p' is the image of quadrilateral mnop after dilation.

the center of dilation is origin and the scale factor is 1.5.

in dilation the image and preimge are similar figures. it means the sides of image and preimage are proportional.

the scale factor is defined as

the scale factor is 1.5.

multiply both sides by op.

note: if the value of op is given, then multiply the value of op with 1.5 to get the length of side o'p'.

therefore length of o'p' is .
