perplexus.info :: Shapes : Given Leaning Ladder, Get the Base

Given Leaning Ladder, Get the Base (Posted on 2023-12-19)

A ladder 5 metres long leans against a wall. A box measuring 1x1x1 meters just fits in the gap.

If the base of the ladder is nearer to the wall than the top of the ladder is to the ground, how far is the base of the ladder from the wall?
