Question

the the length of a string between a kite and a point on the ground is 93.5m. if the string makes an angle theta with the level ground such that tan theta=15/8, how high is the kite? please explain the steps...​

Answer 1

Answer:

Answer:

82.5

Step-by-step explanation:

tan A = 15/8 = p/b

√[(15x)^2 + (8x)^2] = 93.5

17x = 93.5 => X = 5.5

So the kite is at height of

15x = 15 × 5.5 = 82.5 m
