the angle of elevation of a ladder leaning against a wall is 60degrees and the foot of the length of ladder is 4.6 m away from the wall .the length of the ladder is​

Answer»

From \:the \: figure \:above ,

In \: \triangle ABC ,

Distance \:from \:base \:of \:the \: wall \:to

foot \:of \:the \: ladder ( BC) = 4.6 \:m

Angle \:of \: elevation \: a \: ladder \: leaning

a \:wall \: is \: 60\degree

Cos 60\degree = \frac{CB}{AC}

Let \: length \:of \: the \: ladder = AC

\implies \frac{1}{2} = \frac{4.6}{AC}

\implies AC = 4.6 \times 2

\implies AC = 9.2 \:m

THEREFORE.,

\red{Length \:of \: the \: ladder} \green{=9.2 \:m}
