Height and Distance
The angle of elevation of a ladder leaning against a wall is 60° and the foot of the ladder is 4.6 m away from the wall. The length of the ladder is:
2.3 m
4.6 m
7.8 m
9.2 m
Correct Answer:
9.2 m
Explanation:
Let AB be the wall and BC be the ladder.
Then, ∠ACB = 60° and AC = 4.6 m.
AC
= cos 60° =
1
BC
2
⟹ BC
= 2 x AC
= (2 x 4.6) m
= 9.2 m.
