Is this a vertical ladder? Another contributor's answer:Providing that the slide is on level ground and that the ladder is vertical then you have the outline of a right angle triangle with an hypotenuse (the slide) of 3 metres and an adjacent angle of 40 degrees. To find the height of the opposite (the ladder) side of the triangle use the trigonometrical sine ratio: sine = opposite/hypotenuse When the ratio is rearranged: opposite = hypotenuse*sine opposite = 3*sine 40 degrees = 1.928362829 metres So the height of the ladder needs to be nearly 2 metres high.

What is the angle at which loose material will not slide down a slope?

The angle at which loose material will not slide down a slope is called the angle of repose. It is the maximum angle at which an inclined surface formed of a particular loose material can remain stable without sliding. The angle of repose varies depending on the size, shape, and friction of the particles making up the material.
