The height of the ramp is 8.5 inches to the nearest tenth

SOH CAH TOA identity

Given the following parameters

  • Length of skateboard = 21 inches (Hypotenuse)
  • Angle of elevation = 24 degrees

Required

Height of the ramp (opposite)

Using the SOH CAH TOA identity

Sin24 = H/21

H = 21sin24

H = 8.54

Hence the height of the ramp is 8.5 inches to the nearest tenth
