~Please show work :)



Answer :

apologiabiology
so I get it now!

so he is currently 5 feet vertically form the wall
he is currently 3 feet horizonatlly from the wall
the ladder's base is 15 total feet from the wall

height:base=5:3

to find the total height
x:15
multiply 5:3 by 5
25:15

so the top of the ladders's vertical height is 25 feet

so the answer is the ladder is 25 feet from the ground
