Eva is flying a kite, holding her hands a distance of 2.75 feet above the ground and
letting all the kite's string play out. She measures the angle of elevation from her
hand to the kite to be 25°. If the string from the kite to her hand is 130 feet long, how
many feet is the kite above the ground? Round your answer to the nearest tenth of a
foot if necessary.

Respuesta :

Answer: 57.7 feet above the ground

sin 25= opposite/hypotenuse

 = x/130

130 sin 25 = x

x=54.940374

54.940374+2.75 = 57.7
