Question 1026121: a car travels along an inclined road, in the desert, at 45 mph for 6 hours, from point a to point b if the horizontal distance of this section of the road is 265 miles what is the angle of elevation of the road to the nearest tenth Answer by Alan3354(69443) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! The hypotenuse of the right triangle = 270 miles (45*6).
The base is 265 miles.
-------
Cos(angle) = 265/270
Angle =~ 11.04 degrees
