24ft is the hypotenuse, at an angle of 75⁰, and we need to find the adjacent.

We use cos(), which is adjacent divided by hypotenuse.

Therefore, we can find the adjacent by doing:

25 * cos(75) = 6.47ft

Round the answer however you like.

A 24 foot ladder is placed against a building at an angle of 75⁰. How far is the bottom of the ladder from the building?
