and Mildred's hand is 2 m above the ground. About how high is the kite off the ground?
a. 21.3 m
c. 19.3 m
b. 25 m
d. 23 m

Respuesta :

Answer: 21.3m

Step-by-step explanation:

The height of the kite of the ground would be calculated as:

We have to calculate the question using a right angled triangle that has angle ACB as 90° while angle CAB will be 40°.

Therefore, the height of the kite would be:

= 30 sin 40 + 2

= 30 (0.6428 ) + 2

= 19.284 + 2

= 21.284 m

= 21.3 m
