Answer:
Option (A)
Step-by-step explanation:
It has been given in this question that sign telling path has a 2% grade.
2% grade means a rise of 2 meters for a horizontal change of 100 m (As given in the figure attached).
All the trigonometric ratios for the angle θ between the path and the horizontal are,
Sinθ =
Cosθ =
tanθ =
Since measures of the opposite side and adjacent sides are given
Therefore, tangent ratio will be applied to get the measure of the angle,
tanθ =
θ =
Option (A) will be the answer.
