To find the length of the ramp needed to fit diagonally in the cage, we can use the Pythagorean theorem. The diagonal length of a rectangular prism can be found by taking the square root of the sum of the squares of the three dimensions.
So, the diagonal length is √(70^2 + 35^2 + 50^2) ≈ √(4900 + 1225 + 2500) ≈ √8625 ≈ 92.9 cm.
Rounding this value to the nearest tenth, the length of the ramp needed is 92.9 cm.
Therefore, the correct answer is 92.9 cm.
