Use proportions for all of them, for #1 use the proportion 12/30 = 9/a based on corresponding sides and then cross multiply. a=22.5 For #2 use the proportion y/35 = 64/40 based on corresponding sides and then cross multiply, y=56 For #3 use the proportion 42/? = 54/36 and then cross multiply, ?=28
According to the information given, the ramp would be 50 feet high. (However, that seems really high. Did you type your problem correctly?)
If you draw a picture, you will see that you can set up a cosine ratio to solve this problem. With a 30 degree angle of depression, the angle we are going to use 60 degrees.
We can set up the following equation:
cos(60) = x / 100
0.5 = x / 100
50 = x
3/10 = .3 and 87/100 = .87
382.3 - 191.87= 190.43
so the answer is 190.43
