Ethan and Zoe are building a treehouse and need to find the length of a ladder. Which equation would they use to solve for x?

• x²+6²=8.5²

• sin(8.5)= x/6

• sin(8.5)= 6/x

• sin^-1(6/8.5)

Answer explanation

Ethan and Zoe can use the Pythagorean theorem to find the length of the ladder (x). The equation x² + 6² = 8.5² represents the relationship between the ladder, the height, and the distance from the base.
