A15 ft ladder makes a 52° angle with the ground. how far will the top of the ladder be above the ground.

11.820 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

The mnemonic SOH CAH TOA reminds you that ...

Sin = Opposite/Hypotenuse

The length of the ladder is the hypotenuse of a right triangle with 52° as the base angle. The side opposite is the height up the building where the top of the ladder rests. So, you have the relation ...

sin(52°) = height/(15 ft)

Multiplying by the denominator gives you ...

height = (15 ft)·sin(52°) ≈ 11.820 ft

___

You may need to round this number appropriately.

b

step-by-step explanation:

the equation of a line in point- slope form is

y - b = m(x - a)

where m is the slope and (a, b) a point on the line

calculate m using the slope formula

m = (y₂ - y₁ ) / (x₂ - x₁ )

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (0, 4) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (3, - 5) ← 2 points on the line

m = = = - 3

with m = - 3 and (a, b) = (3, - 5), then

y - (- 5) = - 3(x - 3), that is

y + 5 = - 3(x - 3) → b
