A civil engineer must design a wheelchair accessible ramp next to a set of steps leading up to a building. The height from the ground to the top of the stairs is 2ft. Based on ADA codes , the slope must be 1:12 or less. Slope is equal to the rise of the ramp divided by the run of the ramp.
The question is : using the known height and calculated base length what is the length of the slope of the ramp
