Hi there,
\n" ); document.write( "Consider your ladder against
\n" ); document.write( "the wall is a right angled triangle.
\n" ); document.write( "Hypotenuse = 2 meters
\n" ); document.write( "Adjacent = Distance the base of ladder to wall.
\n" ); document.write( "Cos = Adjacent/Hypotenuse
\n" ); document.write( "Cos(60) = Adjacent/2m
\n" ); document.write( "Adjacent = cos(60) x 2
\n" ); document.write( "Adjacent = 1
\n" ); document.write( "Distance from building to
\n" ); document.write( "the base of the ladder = 1 meter.
\n" ); document.write( "Hope this helps :-)
