Just do it as the qquestion says. Apply the fomulae simple for up the inclined Range and down the incline Range. Therfore, after putting evrythng would cut out and the things would remain alive would be: as follows: ( 1 /(1+sin B)=3 /(1-sin B) ) where ( mathrm{B} ) is the angle of inclination of incline. Solving further, ( 1-sin B=3+3 sin B ) ( -2=4 sin B ) ( sin B=-1 / 2 ) ( mathrm{B}=120 ) degree since it is not possibe therfore the answer would be ( 180-120=60 ) degree.
