Problem
A wheelchair ramp rises 1.2m over a horizontal distance of 9m.
(i) Calculate the angle of inclination of the ramp to the nearest degree.
(ii) Determine the length of the ramp correct to one decimal place.
(iii) The local building code limits the angle of inclination of such ramps to 8∘. State, with reason, whether this ramp satisfies the requirement.
