Question

The top of a ladder is placed against the side of a house. The ladder is 8 feet long and the wall is 10 feet high. How far from the wall will the base of the ladder be positioned if the top of the ladder meets the top of the wall?

Answer 1

Your question is confusing, because how can it touch if its two feet shorter? my guess is two feet, maybe three.

Answer 2

I don't understand the question but if I think what I think the question is asking me I would say 2 feet
