Question 801822: A ramp leading to a freeway overpas is 490 ft long and 38 ft. What is the average angle of inclination of the ramp to the nearest tenth of a degree Answer by Cromlix(4381) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! The ramp is 490 ft long and
rises to 38 ft.
Tan x = Opposite/Adjacent
Tan x = 38/490
Tan x = 0.0776
x = 4.4 degrees.
Hope this helps.
