As shown in the adjoining diagram of a staircase,the width of each step is $20 \, cm$ and the height is $15 \, cm$. Find the distance between points $A$ and $B$ in meters.

In trapezium $ABCD$,$\overline{AB} \parallel \overline{CD}$ and $\overline{AC} \cap \overline{BD} = \{P\}$. If $PA = 10$,$PC = 15$ and $PD = 12$,then $BD = \ldots$

In $\Delta ABC$,$m \angle A + m \angle C = m \angle B$ and $\overline{BM}$ is an altitude to $\overline{AC}$. If $AM = 16$ and $CM = 9$,find $BM$,$AB$,and $BC$.

$A$ ladder is placed leaning on a wall. Its upper end reaches to the height of $12 \, m$ on the wall and its lower end rests $9 \, m$ away from the base of the wall. Find the length of the ladder in meters.

In $\Delta ABC$,$\Delta PQR$,and $\Delta XYZ$,the correspondences $ABC \leftrightarrow QPR$ and $PQR \leftrightarrow YZX$ are similarities. Then,the correspondence $ABC \leftrightarrow \dots$ is a similarity.

In $\Delta ABC$,$A-M-B$,$A-N-C$ and $\overline{MN} \parallel \overline{BC}$. If $AM : AB = 5 : 7$ and $AN = 4$,find $NC$.
