A ramp was constructed to load a truck. If the ramp is 8 feet long and the horizontal distance from the bottom of the ramp to the truck is 3 feet, what is the vertical height of the ramp?

x= or about 7.4

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the Pythagorean Theorem:

8^2=3^2+x^2

64=9+x^2

55=x^2

x= or about 7.4

other answer is correct. i had used the radius of the radius somehow. a website:

hope this !
