Question

A train slowly climbs a 600 meter mountain track which is at an angle of 10 degrees with respect to the horizontal how much attitude does it gain

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

600 m is the hypotenuse of a right triangle with legs of ? and ?

( Remeber SOH CAH TOA for right triangles)

sin 10 = Opposite/ Hypotenuse

= height / hypotenuse

or hypotenuse * sin10 = height 600 m * sin10 = 104.2 m
