Answer:

11.3 ft

Explanation:

We have a right triangle with the hypotenuse of 12 and a leg of 4

Using the pythagorean theorem

a^2 +b^2 = c^2

4^2 + b^2 = 12^2

16 +b^2 = 144

Subtract 16 from each side

b^2 =144-16

b^2 =128

Taking the square root of each side

sqrt(b^2) = sqrt( 128)

b =11.3137085
