A skateboard ram inclines at an angle of 20 degrees. If the ramp has a run of 4 meters, what is the length of the ramp? Answer by ankor@dixie-net.com(22740) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! A skateboard ram inclines at an angle of 20 degrees.
If the ramp has a run of 4 meters, what is the length of the ramp?
:
You solve this using the cosine of 20 degrees, let r = the length of the ramp
cos(20) =
r =
r = 4.2567 meters
