Question 173929: A handicap ramp has a horizontal length of 6 feet and a vertical height of 2 feet. What is the slope of the ramp? I know the answer is 1/3, but I need to be able to show my work and do not know how. Answer by bob123132(33) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Well you could graph it out at the points A(0,0) B(6,0) C(6,2) then use the slope formula of RISE/RUN. Substitute: then put into lowest terms of When in doubt, draw it out.
