Question

A ramp with a one meter distance from edge to edge reaches a height of 0.643 meters. What is the value of the acute angle?

Answer 1

The value of the acute angle is 40°

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the angle be 'θ'

Length of the ramp = 1 m

Height = 0.643 m

To find :

The angle of elevation.

we can use sine to find the angle of elevation.

sin θ = 0.643/1

sin θ = 0.643

0.643 = sin 40°

sin θ = sin 40°

So, θ = 40°

The angle of elevation is 40°
