Question

Assuming a ladder truck must follow the OSHA recommendation, what’s the highest floor it can safely reach? Sketch a graph and use trigonometric ratios to explain.

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

In this project, you will be able to combine the recommendations for ladder safety with

trigonometric ratios

to explore how high you can really climb.

Standards:

G-SRT.C.8 z

Use trigonometric ratios and the Pythagorean Theorem to solve right triangles in applied problems. *

This project has been designed to evaluate students’ ability to:

Calculate the distance a ladder should be placed from the ground or a safe ladder angle

Apply trigonometric ratios in order to calculate how high a ladder will reach

Apply mathematics of ladder safety to other areas, e.g. fire trucks
