Answer: 6 meters
Explanation:
From the question, Julio is building a ramp for a bike competition and he has two rectangular boards. One board is 10 meters long and the other is 8 meters long. We are told to calculate the height.
To form a right angle triangle
(hypotenuse)^2= (base)^2 + (height)^2
10^2 = 8^2 + (height)^2
(height)^2 = 10^2 - 8^2
Height^2 = 100 - 64
Height^2 = 36
Height = ✓36
Height = 6
The height is 6 meters.
