A ramp leads up to a building. The top of the ramp is 6 feet above the ground, and the bottom is 16 feet. What is the length of the ramp? Round your answer to the nearest the tenth.

Respuesta :

We could use the Pythagorean theorem for this kind of problem I think:
A^2 + B^2 = C^2
6^2 + 16^2 = C^2
36 + 256 = C^2
292 = C^2
17.08 = C
C = 17.1 to the nearest tenth
Sorry if it’s wrong and glad I could help if it’s right ❤️❤️ Take care!
