16) Jenna is responsible for changing the broken light bulb in a streetlamp. The streetlamp is 14 feet high. Jenna places the base of her ladder 3 feet from the base of the streetlamp. Jenna can extend the ladder from 10 feet to 14 feet. How long must her ladder be to reach the top of the streetlamp? Will her ladder work?​

Use the Pythagorean theorem:

Height is 14, base is 3, so we can calculate the length required.

Length = sqrt(14^2 + 3^2)

Length = sqrt( 196 + 9)

Length = sqrt(205)

Length = 14.32 feet.

The ladder needs to be 14.32 feet. The longest her ladder can be is 14 feet so her ladder won’t work.
