We can set up a proportion using the similar triangles formed by the ladders and the wall:

(height of unknown right angle) / 14 = 4 / 5

Cross-multiplying, we get:

(height of unknown right angle) = 56 / 5

So the height up the wall that the ladder goes is approximately 11.2 feet.

By utilizing the similar triangles created by the ladders and the wall, we can establish a proportion:

Unknown right angle's height / 14 = 4 / 5

After cross-multiplying, we obtain:

Height of unknown right angle = 56 / 5

Hence, the approximate height up the wall that the ladder reaches is 11.2 feet.

By using the similar triangles created by the ladders and the wall, we can create a ratio:

The unknown right angle's height divided by 14 equals 4 divided by 5.

Multiplying both sides, we can conclude that:

The unknown right angle's height equals 56 divided by 5.

Hence, the ladder's height up the wall is approximately 11.2 feet.
