Question 479920
A slide 4.7 m long makes an angle of 25 degrees with the ground. How far above the ground is the top of the slide? 
-----------------
Draw the picture.
4.7 is the hypotenuse 
The angle at the ground is 25 degrees.
----
Let the side opposite the ground angle be "y":
----
Equation:
Solve sin(25) = y/4.7
y = 4.7*sin(25) = 1.9863 meters
