Answer:

Length of the ramp = 18.6 feet (Approx.)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Horizontal distance (base distance) = 17 feet

Angle of elevation = 24°

Find:

Length of the ramp

Computation:

Cosθ = Length of base / Length of hypotenuse

Cos 24 = Horizontal distance (base distance) / Length of the ramp

Cos 24 = 17 / Length of the ramp

0.9135 = 17 / Length of the ramp

Length of the ramp = 17 / 0.9135

Length of the ramp = 18.6 feet (Approx.)
