You are flying a kite on a line that is 294 feet long. Let's suppose the line is perfectly straight and it makes an angle of 60 degrees with the horizontal direction. The kite is flying at an altitude of feet. Hint: Draw a picture. Look for a right triangle.

Respuesta :

Answer:254.61 m

Explanation:

Given

Length of string L=294 ft

angle which string makes with horizontal [tex]\theta =60[/tex]

Let us take y be the height at which kite is flying

from diagram

[tex]\sin 60=\frac{y}{294}[/tex]

[tex]y=294\sin 60[/tex]

[tex]y=254.61 m[/tex]
