Kendra is flying a kite 35 feet in the air. The angle of depression from the kite to where Kendra holds the string is . If Kendra holds the string 3 feet off the ground, what is the distance from her hands to the kite? Round your answer to the nearest tenth.

The distance from her hands to the kite is 60.4 feet.

Explanation:

Given that,

Kendra holds the string from the ground = 3 feet

Distance of kite from the ground = 35 feet

Suppose the angle is 32°.

According to the figure,

We need to calculate the distance from her hands to the kite

Using formula of angle

Put the value into the formula

Hence, The distance from her hands to the kite is 60.4 feet.
