Example 1: 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?
Example 2: The bottom of a handicap ramp is 15 feet from the entrance of a building. If the angle of the ramp is about 4.8°, how high does the ramp rise off the ground to the nearest inch?
Example 3: What is the value of x to the nearest tenth degree?
Example 4: Find mB to the nearest tenth of a degree if cosB = 0.8926 and B is an acute angle.
