Answer»

-step EXPLANATION:Answer:5ftStep-by-step explanation:The TWO ladder will form Right ANGLED triangle.Length of ladder will be the hypotenuse.Third side of Right angled triangle having sides 37ft and 35ft= √37² - 35²= √(37+35)(37-35) = √72*2=√144=12ftThird side of Right angled triangle having sides 25ft and 24ft=√25²-24²= √(25+24)(25-24) =√49*1 = √49 = 7ftDistance between foot of ladder = 12-7 =5FT
