Pythagorean Theorem:
a^2 + b^2 = c^2
8^2 + b^2 = 12^2
64 + b^2 = 144
b^2 = 80
b = 8.9 feet
a^2 + b^2 = c^2
8^2 + b^2 = 12^2
64 + b^2 = 144
b^2 = 80
b = 8.9 feet
12

A 12ft ladder leans against the side of a house. The bottom of the ladder is 9ft from the side of the house. How high is the top of the ladder from the ground? If necessary, round your answer to the nearest tenth.
Is there an answer for 10 feet instead of 8 feet?
