Example 3 A 20-foot ladder is placed against a building to reach a window that is 16 feet above the ground. How many feet away from the building is the bottom of the ladder? A 3 B 4 C 12 D 15 Use the Pythagorean Theorem Example 3 A.6 ft B.8 ft C.9 ft D.10 ft A 10-foot ladder is placed against a building. The base of the ladder is 6 feet from the building. How high does the ladder reach on the building? Concept Example 4 Classify Triangles A. Determine whether 9, 12, and 15 can be the measures of the sides of a triangle. If so, classify the triangle as acute, right, or obtuse. Justify your answer. Example 4 Classify Triangles B. Determine whether 10, 11, and 13 can be the measures of the sides of a triangle. If so, classify the triangle as acute, right, or obtuse. Justify your answer. Example 4 A.yes, acute B.yes, obtuse C.yes, right D.not a triangle A. Determine whether the set of numbers 7, 8, and 14 can be the measures of the sides of a triangle. If so, classify the triangle as acute, right, or obtuse. Justify your answer. Example 4 A.yes, acute B.yes, obtuse C.yes, right D.not a triangle B. Determine whether the set of numbers 14, 18, and 33 can be the measures of the sides of a triangle. If so, classify the triangle as acute, right, or obtuse. Justify your answer. Vectors A vector is represented by a line segment. It has magnitude and direction Draw a Vector Diagram Suppose Silvio walks twelve blocks West from his house at point A. He then turns and walks five blocks South, ending at point B. Draw a vector diagram to show the path Silvio walked. Draw a vector to show the direct route from point A to B. What is the magnitude of this vector AB?
