Question 1 Report

(a)       In < PQS, |PQ| = 12 cm, |PS| = 5 cm, < SPQ = < PRQ = 90°, Find, correct to three significant figures, |PR|.

(b) The length of two ladders, L and M are 10m and 12m respectively. They are placed against a wall such that each ladder makes angle with the horizontal ground. If the foot of L is 8m from the foot of the wall.

(i) Draw a diagram to illustrate this information;  (ii) Calculate the height at which M touches the wall.
