Answer:
51.3 degrees
Step-by-step explanation:
Use Trig Ratio to solve for theta aka the angle formed between the ;adder and the ground.
So we have the hypotenuse = 24ft and the adjacent = 15ft so I am going to use the cos ratio.
cos ∅ = a/h
rearrange for theta
∅ = cos -1 ( a/h)
now sub in the information
∅ = 51.3178
now round to the nearest tenth
∅ = 51.3 degrees
write your therefore statement
therefore, the angle between the ladder and the ground is 51.3 degrees.
