Answer:

  • The length of the unknown leg is 36 ft.

Explanation:

We can solve this with the help of Pythagoras theorem. Let's solve it!

  • => 50² = 35² + h²
  • => 2500 = 1225 + h²
  • => 1275 = h²
  • => h = √1275
  • => h = 36 (Rounded)

Hence, the length of the unknown leg is 36 ft.

Hoped this helped.
