A girl flying her kite with 42 degree angle of elevation. If she knows the length of the string of her kite which is 300 m ,how high is the kite? problem solving

The flagpole is twenty (20) feet tall.

If this is homework, be sure to show your work.

When you copy paste your homework from Edgenuity make sure that you add in the 33° value as our coders are retarded shitlords who cant figure out how to make a ° symbol work with the html code. Also try b. 23 meters.

Here's the manual

http://www.calculated.com/ugfiles/UG34153415-KITE-F.pdf

and page 19 shows you how to do it with the shift key

About 201 meters.

478.125 feet feet high.

Hi there,

Using the measurements you have given and calculating the others as follows:

Angle A= 30 degrees
Side b= 900 metres
Angle B= 60 degrees
Side b= 1558.845 metres

Therefore length of the slope = 1,800.0000000000002 metres (side c)

Hope this helps. Regards, James

It is not clear which angle you are talking about...

In one case the Hypot = 36/(cos(63)) meters. (about 79 meters)

The other case Hypot = 36/(cos(90-63)) meters (about 40 meters)

Unless there is a problem with the kite itself. Look for broken or bent connection bars. If there seems to be nothing wrong make sure you are somewhere with lots of wind. like the beach 10-15mph winds at least. Make sure the string is let out in equal lenghts (Most likely your problem) and just let it fly for a few minuts before attempting any tricks. If you can get it up and there is plenty of wind but it keeps crashing then add a tail to give the "bottom" of the kite some extra weight. Good Luck.

height =50
length = 60
angle=x

tangent(x)=50/60
tangent(x)=0.833
x=39.8 degree
