A ladder 8.70 m long leans against the side of a building. If the ladder is inclined at an angle of 69.0° to the horizontal, what is the horizontal distance from the bottom of the ladder to the building?

cos 69 = h/8.7

Odd question for physics, this is Alg II or very basic trig.

Length=8.70*cos69
