Answer:

it's about 106.71ft

Step-by-step explanation:

make this problem a triangle. the ramp length is 312ft, and it is the hypotenuse of the triangle. 20 is the angle between the ramp and the floor. so what I did was take the sine of 20 and get: sin(20)=x/312 then you multiply both sides by 312 to isolate the variable. multiplying sin(20) by 312 gave me 106.71 + some change idk if you're supposed to round it or not haha.
