how long should an escalator be if it is to make an angle 33 degrees with the floor and carry people a vertical distance of 21ft between floors? Can somebody please help me..?

OpenStudy (nurali):

sin(33degrees) = (distance between the floors) / (length of the escalator) 0.544639 = 21 feet / (length of the escalator) length of the escalator = 38.6 feet
