skateboarding ramp is 12in. high and rises at an angle of 23 degrees. How long is the base of the​ ramp? Round to the nearest inch.

the length of the base of the ramp is 28.27 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

The computation of the length of the base of the ramp is shown below:

Let us assume x be the length of the base of  the ramp

Now the following formula should be used

tan = opposite ÷ adjacent

tan 23 degrees = 12 ÷ x

x = 12 ÷ tan 23 degrees

= 12 ÷ 0.42447482

=28.27 inches long

Hence, the length of the base of the ramp is 28.27 inches

an advantage of the standard deviation is that it increases as the dispersion of the data increases. e. the interquartile range is preferred when the data are not skewed or no have outliers. an advantage of the standard deviation is that it uses all the observations in its computation.
