Your school is organizing a carnival. You are building a ramp for a game the surface of the ramp will be 5 feet long with a total rise of 3 feet. Find the angle of elevation of the ramp

Respuesta :

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

this angle is related to the ramp surface length (hypotenuse) and the rise in the ramp by the tangent function:

sin Ф = opp / hyp = 3 ft  /   5 ft = 0.60

Use the inverse sine function to determine the angle Ф.

arcsin 0.60 = 36.9 degrees
