$23.53\text{ feet}$

Step-by-step explanation:

GIVEN: One airport has a ramp sloping down from the passenger waiting area to the plane. If the distance from the waiting area to the plane is $23 \text{ feet}$ and the height from the ground to the waiting area is $5 \text{feet}$ .

TO FIND: length of ramp.

SOLUTION:

Consider the figure attached

Distance from the waiting area to the plane $=23\text{ feet}$

height from the ground to the waiting area $=5\text{ feet}$

let the length of ramp be $=\text{r}$

Now,

Using Pythagorean theorem

$\text{r}^2=23^2+5^2$

$\text{r}^2=554$

$\text{r}=23.53\text{ feet}$

Hence the length of ramp is $23.53\text{ feet}$
