Answer:
If your rounding up, its 1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
To get a close estimate, we can round 49 up to 50 and 311 down to 300, obtaining an estimate of 50/300 = 1/6, or 0.1666... as a repeating decimal. That decimal approximation is a little less than one hundredth away from the actual decimal approximation of ≈ 0.1576
Answer:
the angle of elevation is 12.56°
Step-by-step explanation:
the height of the ramp represents the opposite side and the length of the ramp the hypotenuse
we see that it has (angle, hypotenuse, opposite)
well to start we have to know the relationship between angles, legs and the hypotenuse
a: adjacent
o: opposite
h: hypotenuse
sin α = o/h
cos α= a/h
tan α = o/a
we choose the one with opposite and hypotenuse
sin α = o/h
sin α = 5ft / 23ft
sin α = 5/23
α = sin^-1 ( 5/23)
α = 12.56°
the angle of elevation is 12.56°
