Step-by-step explanation:
The picture below shows a box sliding down a ramp: A right triangle ABC has measure of angle ABC equal to 90 degrees and measure of angle ACB equal to 62 degrees. The length of AB 10 feet. What is the distance, in feet, that the box has to travel to move from point A to point C?
i have made some little assumption to the question since it was skipped in the question
length AB=10ft
in Trigonometry, we find the sine of angles:
Sine of angles is the ratio of the opposite side of a right angle triangle to the hypotenuse
sin 62=opposite/hypotenuse
sin 62=10/H
H=10/sin 62
H=11.325ft
