Question

slove each problem include a diagram. a. A 6m long wheelchair ramp makes an angle of 15 with the ground. How high abouve the ground does the top end of the ramp reach. b.two treees are 120m apart. From the point halfway between them, then angle of the elevation to the top of the trees is 36 and 52. how much taller is one tree than the other.

Answer 1

The wheelchair ramp must have a height of approximately 1.553 meters. One tree is approximately 310.309 meters taller than the other one.

How to determine measures with trigonometric functions

In this problem we have two cases in which geometric diagrams and trigonometric functions are utilized to determine side lengths. Based on all informations presented in the images attached below, we proceed to find the side lengths:

Case A

h = (6 m) · sin 15°

h ≈ 1.553 m

Case B

Δh = 60 m /cos 36° - 60 m /cos 52°

Δh ≈ 310.309 m
