A 12 feet ladder leans against the side of a house. The bottom of the ladder is 9 feet from the side of the house. How high is the top of the ladder from the ground? If necessary, round your answer to the nearest tenth.
We have a right triangle, where 12 is the hypotenuse. Using our right triangle calculator, we get:
side = 7.9
