Question 1105684
Sara is flying a kite at the park.The angle of elevation from Serato kite in the Sky is 53 and the length Of the string 32 feet, If Sarah is 5 feet tall, how far 0ff the ground is the kite? 
-----
Sketch the situation.
Ground is a line at zero elevation.
String is held at 5 ft elevation at an angle of 53 degrees
You have a right triangle with base at 5 ft above the ground.
Hypotenuse is 32 ft.
Find the height of the triangle::
height = 32*sin(53) = 25.56 ft
-----
Ans: height above the ground = 25.56 + 5 = 30.56 ft
