If the ramp forms an angle of 32 degrees with the ground,how high above the ground,around to the nearest tenth,what is the top of the ramp?
+37170 You'll have to give more information......either the horizontal distance the ramp covers or the actual length of the ramp to get a numerical answer to this.....
+37170 OK...it is a right triangle with a hypotenuse of 30 feet the angle = 32 degrees sin (32) = OPPOSITE/HYPOTENUSE ((Remember 'SOHCAHTOA' ?)
So sin(32) = .5299 (by calculator) = opposite/hypotenuse
.5299 = opposite/30
.5299 (30) = opposite = 15.897 feet in elevation
