Question

HELP PLEASE

In this unit, you've learned about trigonometry and its applications to right triangles and real-world scenarios that can be modeled
with right triangles. In such scenarios, sometimes we refer to an angle of elevation or depression. Both types of angles have one side
that is horizontal. From this side, the angle may open up (angle of elevation) or open down (angle of depression). These images show
the difference between the two.

In this task, you'll apply what you've learned to answer questions about a skateboard ramp that you and your friends are building for
your community skate park. The ramp will lead up to a platform. You'll be using a piece of wood that's 3.5 meters long for the ramp,
and the ramp's angle of elevation will be 28°. Use this figure as a model to answer the questions that follow.
