Can a roofer who wants to repair your roof that is 28 feet above the ground level use a 28 foot ladder?
No. since the ladder must be on an angle it must have room so that the length of the ladder is equal to the 282 + (distance between bottom of ladder and house)2.

A ladder of length 5m rests against a wall The foot of the ladder is 1.7m from the base of the wall How far up the wall does the ladder reach?
6.7
A ladder 3m long leans against a wall reaches 2m up the wall What is the distance between the bottom of the ladder and the wall?
If you are asking, what's the distance (x) from the bottom of the ladder to the wall, then... x squared + 2 squared = 3 squared x squared + 4 = 9 x squared = 5 x = the square root of 5, or approx 2.24 m
A 6 m ladder is used to reach a window 5 m above ground. What is the farthest distance from the base of the wall that the foot ladder can reach?
It depends if you want the ladder to overhang or to be set under but I would say 2 feet or 2/3 of a meter
What is the distance between -2 4 and 1 -2?
What is the distance between (4, -2) and (-1,6)?
what is the distance between -2 and -1 1/2?
What is the distance between (4, -2) and (-1,6)?
A ladder is resting against a wall The top of the ladder touches the wall at a height of 6 feet Find the length of the ladder if the length is 2 feet more than its distance from the wall?
10 feet, and it is at a very dangerous angle.
A ladder is leaning against a building The distance from the bottom of the ladder to the building is 4ft less than the length of the ladder How high up the side of the building is the top of the lad?
x^2=(x-4)^2+y^2 height up the wall = y = (x^2-(x-4)^2)^1/2 so if the length of the ladder is 10 feet Y= (100-36)^1/2 = 8
What is the distance between 4 -2 and -1 6?
What is the distance between (4, -2) and (-1,6)?
A 15feet ladder leaning against a bulding touches the wall 12 feet above the ground. How far from the building is the bottom of the ladder?
This is a standard right triangle problem. The formula for solving the parameter of a triangle is a^2 + b^2 = c^2 Also known as the Pythagorean theorem. So, in this problem, the ladder is the hypotenuse, that is to say side c of the triangle. The height of the house is 12 or b in this example. Finally, the distance from the house, is the unknown distance a . Applying this knowledge gives us a^2 + 12^2 = 15^2 Simplified to a^2 + 144 = 225 225 - 144 = 81 So now you have a^2 = 81. Taking the square root of each side of the equation, we're left with: a = 9 So, the ladder is nine feet away from the house at the bottom of the ladder.
How can you find the distance between two numbers on a number line?
Just subtract the lowest number from the greatest number. For example, the distance between 3 and 8, is 8 - 3 = 5 units, the distance between -2 and 3, is 3 - (-2) = 3 + 2 = 5 units, the distance between -4 and -2, is -2 - (-4) = -2 + 4 = 2 units.
