Howe Moving Company has a loading ramp for their moving truck. The ramp connects to the truck 5 feet above the ground, and the length of the ramp from the truck to the ground is 13 feet long. What is the distance along the ground from the truck to the end of the ramp?

12 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

The ramp connects to the truck 5 feet above the ground, and the length of the ramp from the truck to the ground is 13 feet long.

Now we need to find the distance along the ground from the truck to the end of the ramp.

Here,

5 feet will be perpendicular distance, 13 feet will be hypotenuse and we need to find the base.

Using Pythagoras therorem to find it :

So, the required distance is 12 feet.

your answer is a

step-by-step explanation:

4*4*4*4=256
