Question

A boy flying a kite has let out 60 m of string.If the angle of elevation of the kite is 60 deegree,calculate the height of the kite above the ground.

Answer 1

Hey MATE!!!

Let us assume the height of the kite from the ground be x.

Therefore, we can find height of the kite by sinΦ [Φ is the angle of elevation of kite from ground].

$sin 60° = \frac{x}{60} \\ \\ \frac{ \sqrt{3} }{2} = \frac{x}{60} \\ \\ x = \frac{60 \sqrt{3} }{2} = > {30 \sqrt{3}}$

Hope it helps

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

let the hight is x.

then it's tan formula

then.......

tanx =L/A

tan60=x/60

1/√3=x/60

then..x=60/√3
