Question

A ladder sits 6 m away from the side of a house. The top of the latter rests at 14 m above the ground. The angle of elevation is 66.8^\circ . What is the length of the ladder?

Answer 1

Please clarify: "The angle of elevation is 66.8^\circ"

Answer 2

ok

Answer 3

66.8 degrees i meant

Answer 4

sin 66.8 = 14 / L
solve for L

Answer 5

so i would do (L/1)66.8= 14/L (L/1) next to then get 14/sin(66.8)?

Answer 6

yes
