Two Ladders

Can someone please give me a clue or a hint as to what the answer to the Two ladders puzzle on the Easy page might be. We've had at least 6 people in the office look at it not, all think that it's easy and then decide that it isn't after a few minutes.
Just a clue will do if no-one has the answer . . .

clue 1: draw it
clue 2: use the search option of the forum (and don't forget to search more than 7 days ago)

I've been drawing it and mucking about with similar triangles and thing but no joy yet . . I know that I'm close but can't quite get there . . . however I hadn't realised that the search defaults to the past 7 days.
Thanks
