Kari is flying a kite. She releases 50 feet of string. What is the approximate difference in the height of the kite when the string makes a 25o angle with the ground and when the string makes a 45o angle with the ground? Round to the nearest tenth

Step-by-step explanation:

The string of a kite forms a right angle triangle with the ground. The length of the string represents the hypotenuse of the right angle triangle. The height of the kite represents the opposite side of the right angle triangle.

To determine the height of the kite, we would apply the sine trigonometric ratio which is expressed as

Sin θ = opposite side/hypotenuse.

1) if the kite makes an angle of 25° with the ground, then the height, h would be

Sin 25 = h/50

h = 50Sin25 = 50 × 0.4226

h = 21.1 feet

2) if the kite makes an angle of 45° with the ground, then the height, h would be

Sin 45 = h/50

h = 50Sin45 = 50 × 0.7071

h = 35.4 feet

The approximate difference in the height of the kite is

35.4 - 21.1 = 14.3 feet

20335+282=20617

step-by-step explanation:

ratio is 2 : 9

the answer is three

13.5 : 3
