A curb is 4 inches high. The ramp from the sidewalk yo the street follows the same guidelines as other Ramos (no more than 4.8 degrees, so a 1:12 ratio of vertical to horizontal). What is the horizontal distance for a ramp with a 4 inch vertical distance?

The horizontal distance for a ramp with a 4 inch vertical distance will be 48 inches.

Given,

The height of curb is 4 inches.

We have to calculate the horizontal distance for a ramp with a 4 inch vertical distance.

The ramp from the sidewalk of the street follows the same guidelines as other Ramos, no more than 4.8 degree.

Since The ratio of vertical to horizontal  is 1:12, it means for a 1 inch vertical distance the horizontal distance is 12 inches.

So, for 4 inches of vertical distance the horizontal distance will be,

inches.

Hence the required horizontal distance is 48 inches.

Accoriding to the given ration, one unit of vertical distance is equivalent to 12 units of horizontal distance. So, the horizontal distance is

Therefore, the horizontal distance is 48 inches.
