The inclination angle is 10°

Step-by-step explanation:

The given scenario forms a right angled triangle where the length of ramp is hypotenuse and the rise of ramp is the perpendicular

Given

H = 4.2m

P = 0.7m

We have to use the trigonometric ratios to find the angle. The ratio that has to be used should involve both perpendicular and hypotenuse

Let x be the angle

then

sin\ x = \frac{P}{H}\\sin\ x = \frac{0.7}{4.2}\\sin\ x = 0.1666\\x = sin^{-1} (1.666)\\x = 9.59 => 10

Hence,

The inclination angle is 10°

nirvana33 [79]
7 + 12 + 17 + 22 + 27 = ( 7 + 27 ) + ( 12 + 22 ) + ( 34 / 2 ) = ( 34 / 1 ) + ( 34 / 1 ) + ( 34 / 2 ) = ( 68 / 2 ) + ( 68 / 2 ) + ( 34 / 2 ) = 170 / 2 = 85 .
