Answer:

1. Draw out a diagram as a triangle with one side as the 5' rise, the other side as the horizontal run, and the hypotenuse as the ramp.

2. Put the 5 ° in as the angle between the run and the ramp.

3. Let the run = x. Using trigonometry (needed!) the tangent angle (tan) of 5° = opposite/adjacent = 5/x.

4. So x = 5/tan(5°). you will need a scientific calculator to solve.
