Question 850561: I am wanting to build a ramp. I need the angle of ascent to be no more than 15 degrees. The height of my right angle triangle is 1.1m It doesn't matter what the bottom (adjacent length is. I jus need to know the length of the hypotenuse. Is this possible with the information I have given. Sorry my trig has gone out the window.

-------------
side opposite the 15 deg angle is 1.1m
sin(15) = 1.1/hyp
hyp = 1.1/sin(15)
=~ 4.25 m
hyp >= 4.25 m
