A kite is flying at a height of 60 m above the ground. The string attached to the kite
is tied at the ground. It makes an angle of 60° with the ground. Assuming that
the string is straight, find the length of the string. (V3 =1.73).

Answer:
The length of the string is approximately 69m.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let, ABC be the triangle formed by string of kite, ground and the height of the kite.
So, AB = 60m
Angle = 60°
We have to find AC,
By using trigonometry,
sin60° = AB/AC
root3/2 = 60/AC
1.73/2 = 60/AC
AC = 60×2/1.73
AC = 120/1.73
AC = 69.36
