Mike have to ride 11.2 to reach the end of his ramp.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given triangle is right angled, therefore,
One leg = a =5
Other leg = b = 10
Hypotenuse = c = y
Using Pythagoras theorem;
[tex]a^2+b^2=c^2\\(5)^2+(10)^2=(y)^2\\25+100=y^2\\125=y^2\\y^2=125\\[/tex]
Taking square root on both sides
[tex]\sqrt{y^2}=\sqrt{125}\\y=11.18[/tex]
Rounding off to nearest tenth;
y=11.2
Mike have to ride 11.2 to reach the end of his ramp.
