Question

the original height of the great pyramid of giza was 481 feet. the side of the pyramid rose at an angle of approximately 52°. use the sine ratio to find the length from the bottom to the tip of the pyramid along the slanted side to the nearest foot. (1 point) 379 781 610 296

Explanation:

Step1: Define sine ratio

$\sin(\theta) = \frac{\text{opposite}}{\text{hypotenuse}}$
Here, $\theta = 52^\circ$, opposite side = height = 481 ft, hypotenuse = slanted side length $L$.

Step2: Rearrange for $L$

$L = \frac{481}{\sin(52^\circ)}$

Step3: Calculate value

First, $\sin(52^\circ) \approx 0.7880$, so $L \approx \frac{481}{0.7880} \approx 610$

Answer:

610 (Option: 610)
