Answer:
r = 13
Step-by-step explanation:
these angles are vertical and are congruent
8r + 6 = 9r - 7
6 = r - 7
13 = r

Explanation:
We view the ramp as a right triangle. The hypotenuse is 4.2 and the vertical side .7, which is opposite the angle
θ
we seek.

I'm going to finish the problem but I'll note if we were actually building the ramp we don't need to know the angle; this sine is sufficient.

which I think is a pretty steep ramp for a wheelchair.
There will be another inverse sine that is the supplementary angle, around

, but we can rule that out as a value for a ramp wedge angle.
Answer:
197%
Step-by-step explanation:
1.97 = 437/860.89
1.97=197%
All of the above are true
