Draw and label a diagram!
c represents the hypotenuse (ladder's length)
cos 35° = 8.25 / c
Can you solve for c and answer?

asked  06/26/19A ladder will lean against a house so that two window frames can be painted. The ladder will be positioned so that the top of the ladder will rest against the house just below the frame of the window.
The first window has a frame whose bottom is at a height of 8 feet, 3 inches. When the ladder in positioned to paint the gram of the window, the ladder meets the wall of the house at an angle of 35 degrees.
What is the length of the ladder?
