Asked by Jeremu
                A 25ft ladder leans up against the side of a house, with the base of the ladder a distance 3ft from the wall.
If the ladder is moved out by 5ft, how far down the wall will the top of the ladder move?

    a^2 + 3^2 = 25^2
a^2 + 9 = 625
a^2 = 616
a = 24.82
a^2 + 8^2 = 25^2
a^2 + 64 = 625
a^2 = 561
a = 23.69
