Aslide 4.1 m long makes an angle of 35° with the ground. rounded to the nearest tenth of a meter, how far above the ground is the top of the slide?

The slide is inclined at an angle of 35 degrees with the ground. The length of the slide is 4.1 meters.

To find how far above the ground is the top of the slide, we need to find the vertical component of the length of the slide inclined at 35 degrees.

The vertical component of Length of Slide = 4.1 sin (35) = 2.4

So, rounding to nearest tenth of a meter, the top of the slide is 2.4 meters above the ground

Since the situation forms a right triangle with hypotenuse and angle given, then sin = opposite / hypo

opposite = hypotenuse * sin theta = 2.35m

 

I did the calculation and discovered that the empire state is 441.96 meters tall, and the page is 27.94 centimeters tall. A and B don't leave you with enough room on the page, C leaves too much, D is wrong because a page doesn't have 441.96 centimeters in it, and F would also leave too much space. To check that E is the correct answer, we can divide 441.96 by 50 to get 8.83. The scale model will be short, but it yields the best results comparative to the rest. I'm so sorry if this is wrong, it just doesn't seem that there's a better answer.
