Question
if the ladder is 10 m long and 5 m from the base of the building, how high up the building will the ladder reach?
responses:
5^2 + x^2 =10^2; x=75 m, which is a rational, whole number
√10^2 + 5^2 = c^2; c= √125, which is an irrational number and must be estimated at 11.2 m
10^2 + 5^2 = c^2; c= 125 m, which is a rational, whole number
5^2 + x^2 =10^2; x= √75 m, which is an irrational number and would be estimated to be 8.7 m
