Answer:

7.96 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Given;

Length of ramp L = 8 ft

Angle with the horizontal (ground) = 6°

Applying trigonometry;

With the length of ramp as the hypothenuse,

The horizontal distance d as the adjacent to angle 6°

Since we want to calculate the adjacent and we have the hypothenuse and the angle. We can apply cosine;

Cosθ = adjacent/hypothenuse

Substituting the values;

Cos6° = d/8

d = 8cos6°

d = 7.956175162946

d = 7.96 ft

The building is 7.96ft away from the entry point of the ramp.

On a certain day, the exchange rate was 60 U.S. dollars for 50 euro. How many U.S. dollars were 60 euro worth that day?
Fudgin [204]
The exchange rate can be expressed as: 60 dollars / 50 euro

So 60 euros * 60 dollars / 50 euro = 60 * 60 / 50 dollars (the euros cancel out)
= 3600 / 50 dollars
= 360 / 5 dollars
= 72 dollars
