Question

A skateboarding ramp is 11in. high and rises at an angle if 23⁰. How long is the base of the ramp? Round to the nearest inch *round to the nearest integer as needed*

Answer 1

`\begin{gathered} \tan 23=\frac{\text{opposite side}}{\text{adjacent side}} \\ \\ \tan 23=\frac{\text{1}1}{\text{base}} \\ \text{base}=(11)/(\tan 23) \\ \text{base}\approx26\text{ in} \end{gathered}`
