Use Trigonometric Ratios to Find a Length
EXERCISING A fitness trainer sets the incline on a
treadmill to 7°. The walking surface is 5 feet long.
Approximately how many inches did the trainer
raise the end of the treadmill from the floor?
Let y be the height of the treadmill from the floor in
inches. The length of the treadmill is 5 feet, or 60 inches.
Use Trigonometric Ratios to Find a Length
Multiply each side by 60.
Use a calculator to find y.
