The diagram shows a slide with a ramp and a height labeled as \(2 \, \text{m}\). You are asked to:

(a) Find the height of the top of the slide.  
(b) Find the length of the slide.

### Analyzing the Problem:

1. The triangle formed by the slide, the height, and the base (ramp) is a right triangle.
2. The height given is \(2 \, \text{m}\), which is the vertical side of the triangle.
3. To find the height of the top of the slide, we can use trigonometric ratios or Pythagoras' theorem.

#### Let's assume the angle at the base is given or needs to be inferred. Without the angle or the base length, we cannot directly find the length of the slide.

### Let me know if you can provide the angle or base length, or if you'd like me to estimate based on standard assumptions. 

Would you like a detailed breakdown of how to solve this problem step-by-step?
