Question

applying the 45°-45°-90° triangle theorem
a 12 - foot ladder is leaning against a wall. the distance from the base of the wall to the base of the ladder is ( 6sqrt{2} ) feet. given this information, what can be determined about the triangle formed by the ground, wall, and ladder? check all that apply

• the triangle is isosceles
• the leg - to - hypotenuse ratio is ( 1:sqrt{2} )
• the leg - to - hypotenuse ratio is ( 1:\frac{sqrt{2}}{2} )
• the nonright angles are congruent
• the ladder represents the longest length in the triangle

Explanation:

Answer:

The triangle is isosceles
The leg-to-hypotenuse ratio is $1 : \sqrt{2}$
The nonright angles are congruent
The ladder represents the longest length in the triangle
