Didn't do the trig on it, but just thinking logically, I'd say E.

7 squared plus unknown = 25 squared unknown = 24
24 - 4 = 20
20 squared + uknown squared = 25 squared
unknown = 15
15-7 = 8

I did the math. It is E.
A squared plus B squared equals C squared. 7 squared plus B squared = 25 squared. 49 + B squared = 625 B squared = 576 B = 24 Then A squared + 20 squared = 25 squared A squared + 400 = 625 A squared = 225 A = 15 Then 15 - 7 = 8 |

I did the same thing basically as SVT and tried to keep it challenging by doing it in my head. The square root of 576 I had to think on for a moment or two...glad it was a whole number!
Intuitively, you'd think a triangle with a hypotenuse of 25 and a base of 7 would have a shorter opposite side. Now, can everybody sing "On top of Catheti"? |

But how long will it take the guy to hit the ground once the top slides down and the base of the ladder kicks out?

A rope ladder on a boat hangs over the side of the boat and just reaches the water. Its rungs are 8 inches apart. How many rungs will be under the water when the tide rises 4 feet? |

None. The boat floats up and remains the same height on the water.
