Algebra.Com's Answer #523258 by mananth(16946)![]() ![]() You can put this solution on YOUR website! A kite string makes a 62 degree angle with the horizontal, and 300 ft of the string is let out. The string is held 6ft off the ground. How high is the kite?\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "let the vertical height of kite from where it is held be x \n" ); document.write( "string = 300 ft\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "angle = 62 degrees\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "sin 62 = x/300\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "x= 300 *sin 62 degrees \n" ); document.write( "x=264.9 feet \n" ); document.write( "add 6 to it \n" ); document.write( "270.9 feet is the height of kite from ground \n" ); document.write( " |
