Answer:
46.6°
Explanation:
A slide at a children's park is 74 inches tall in the horizontal distance The slide covers is 70 inches what is the angle measures created by the slide and the ground
We solve the above question using Trigonometric function of Cosine.
tan x = Opposite/Adjacent
x = The angle
Hypotenuse = Slide covers = 70 inches
Adjacent = 74 inches
tan x = 74/70
x = arc tan (74/70)
x = 46.591140271°
Approximately = 46.6°
