A ladder leans against a wall. The angle between the ladder and the ground is 22 degrees more than the angle that the ladder makes with the wall. Find the measure of each angle.
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "Let x = the angle that the ladder makes with the wall
\n" ); document.write( "then
\n" ); document.write( "x+22 = angle between the ladder and the ground
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "x + x+22 + 90 = 180
\n" ); document.write( "x + x+22 = 90
\n" ); document.write( "2x+22 = 90
\n" ); document.write( "2x = 68
\n" ); document.write( "x = 34 degrees (the angle that the ladder makes with the wall)
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "angle between the ladder and the ground:
\n" ); document.write( "x+22 = 34+22 = 56 degrees
