The diagram represents a ramp in the shape of a right triangle and the lengths of two of its sides in feet. What is the length of the round in feet?

Answer:
61 feet
Explanation:
The length of the ramp is the hypotenuse of the right triangle formed.
To find the hypotenuse, use the Pythagorean Theorem:
[tex]\begin{gathered} Hypotenuse^2=Base^2+Altitude^2 \\ x^2=60^2+11^2 \end{gathered}[/tex]Take the square root of both sides:
[tex]\begin{gathered} x=\sqrt{60^2+11^2} \\ x=\sqrt{3721} \\ x=61\text{ ft} \end{gathered}[/tex]The length of the ramp is 61 feet.
