As given by the question

There are given that the value of slope and run in the right angle triangle.

Now,

According to the statement, the figure of the right-angle triangle is shown below:

So from the right-angle triangle, find the value of x

Then,

From the formula of tan function


\text{tan}3^(\circ)25^(\prime)=(x)/(6300)

Then,


\begin{gathered} \text{tan}3^(\circ)25^(\prime)=(x)/(6300) \\ 0.0597=(x)/(6300) \\ x=6300*0.0597 \\ x=376.11 \end{gathered}

Hence, the value of rising is 376 ft
