You are going to use an incline plane to lift a heavy object to the too of shelving unit with a height of 7 ft. The base if the incline plane is 26 ft from the shelving unit. What is the length of the incline plane? FAST HELPPP MEE PLEASEE IM STUCK

17.46 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

The inclined plane is in the shape of a right triangle, therefore we can use the Pythagorean theorem to find the length of the inclined plane. The formula for this theorem is the following

Where a and b are the two sides and c is the hypotenuse/inclined side. Therefore, we can simply plug in the lengths of the two sides into the formula and solve for c.

  ... square root both sides

17.46 = c

answer with step-by-step explanation:

a. ∠j is supplementary to ∠k - true:

(opposite angles of a trapezoid are supplementary which means that they add up to 180 degrees)

b. kl is parallel to jm - true:

(opposite sides are parallel to each other in a trapezoid)

c. jk is perpendicular to kl - false:

(clearly, jk does not make a right angle with kl)

d. jk is parallel to lm - false:

(jk and lm are two lines opposite in direction to each other so they cannot be parallel)

e. ∠j is congruent to ∠m - true:

(the angles on each side of the base are congruent)

f. ∠j is congruent to ∠k - false:

(the angles on the same side but opposite side of the base are not congruent)
