A 74 inch rake is Leaning against a wall. The top of the rake hits the wall 70 inches above the ground. How far is the bottom of the rake from the base of the wall?
We have a right triangle.
Hypotenuse is the rake length fo 74 inches. One of the legs is 70. We use our right triangle calculator to solve for the other leg:
24 inches
