Stairs that measure 22 feet long are used to let passengers off an airplane. The distance from the bottom of the stairs to the point perpendicular to the plane door is 11 feet. A right triangle has a side length of 11 feet and hypotenuse of 22 feet. Use the drop downs to answer the following questions: What measure represents a and c in the Pythagorean theorem, a2 + b2 = c2? a = c = How high is the plane door from the ground? Round to the nearest hundredth. b ≈ feet.
