Question

The picture shows a box sliding down a ramp.

Answer 1

In your question where as the picture shows a box sliding down a ramp and ask to calculate the distance, in feet, that the box has to travel to move form point A to point C and the best answer would be 12 cosec 65. I hope you are satistfied with my answer and if you need some clarification, please feel free to ask for more

Answer 2

Answer:

$AC=12cosec(65\°)\ ft$

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

In the right triangle ABC

$sin(65\°)=\frac{AB}{AC}$

In this problem we have

$AB=12\ ft$

Substitute and solve for AC

$sin(65\°)=\frac{12}{AC}$

$AC=\frac{12}{sin(65\°)}$

Remember that

$cosec(65\°)=\frac{1}{sin(65\°)}$

substitute

$AC=12cosec(65\°)\ ft$
