Answer:

46.6°

Step-by-step explanation:

A slide at a children's park is 74 inches tall in the horizontal distance The slide covers is 70 inches what is the angle measures created by the slide and the ground

We solve the above question using Trigonometric function of Cosine.

tan x = Opposite/Adjacent

x = The angle

Hypotenuse = Slide covers = 70 inches

Adjacent = 74 inches

tan x = 74/70

x = arc tan (74/70)

x = 46.591140271°

Approximately = 46.6°
