The length of the ramp can be found using the formula:
Length of ramp = height / sin(angle of elevation)
Length of ramp = 2 / sin(20°)
Length of ramp ≈ 5.80 feet
Therefore, the length of the ramp is approximately 5.8 feet.
A ramp up to the house has an angle of elevation of 20° and a height of 2 feet, how long is the ramp? Round the answer to the nearest tenth. (1 point)
