help!! the assignment is on quadrilaterals, similar triangles, and circles! I really need this answered! answer in paragraph proof
I have a pyramid geometry question.
A construction company is hired to build a wheelchair ramp for a restaurant. The ramp connects the handicap parking space (point A) to the top of the porch of the restaurant (point B) that is 4.5 feet higher than the ground level belowit (point C), making a right triangle ABC. The building regulations require the ramp angle to be 8 degrees, meaning angle A must be 8 degrees. 1. On a sheet of paper, draw the right triangle of the ramp and label the sides and angle A. Indicate which side is 4.5 ft. 2. Use the right triangle trigonometry and calculate the length of the ramp (side AB). Show your work on the paper.
