What is the maximum height above the underlying ground surface for an embankment slide chute?

10 inches
12 inches
15 inches
8 inches

The correct answer is: 12 inches

An embankment slide chute is a structure used for children to slide down from an elevated height. An important factor to consider when building this structure is the maximum height above the underlying ground surface. This is to ensure the safety of the children using the slide chute. The other options, 10 inches, 15 inches, and 8 inches, are incorrect because they do not provide the required height for a safe slide chute. 10 inches and 8 inches are too low and can cause children to hit the ground while sliding, potentially causing injuries. 15 inches is too high and can also lead to accidents. Therefore, the best option is 12 inches, which provides a safe and enjoyable height for children to slide down from.
