Problem:


The horizontal length of a ramp for people with disabilities is 5 meters. The angle of inclination between the base of the ramp and the surface through which people with disabilities pass is 10 degrees.

Find the length of the ramp.

The length of the ramp can be found using the cosine function.

From here, you find the following relationship:

cosine (10) = 5 / L

From here, you clear the length of the ramp.
