The formula to calculate the slope angle of a car ramp is:
\[ \text{Slope (angle)} = \arctan\left(\frac{\text{rise}}{\text{run}}\right) \]
Rise is the vertical height of the ramp. Run is the horizontal length of the ramp. The slope angle is the angle formed between the ramp and the horizontal ground.
Let's assume the following values:
Using the formula:
\[ \text{Slope (angle)} = \arctan\left(\frac{1.5}{10}\right) = 8.53 \text{ degrees} \]
| Rise | Run | Slope Angle |
|---|---|---|
| 1 m | 10 m | 5.71 degrees |
| 1.1 m | 10 m | 6.28 degrees |
| 1.2 m | 10 m | 6.84 degrees |
| 1.3 m | 10 m | 7.41 degrees |
| 1.4 m | 10 m | 7.97 degrees |
| 1.5 m | 10 m | 8.53 degrees |
| 1.6 m | 10 m | 9.09 degrees |
| 1.7 m | 10 m | 9.65 degrees |
| 1.8 m | 10 m | 10.20 degrees |
| 1.9 m | 10 m | 10.76 degrees |
