    The ramp will form a triangle with height 2ft and base 6ft.

    The length of the ramp will be the hypotenuse of this triangle.

    length² = height² + base²

    length = √ (height² + base²)

    length = √ (2² + 6²)

    length = √ (4 + 36)

    length = √40

    length = 6.3ft

    Therefore, the ramp will be 6.3ft long.
