Mr. Perez is flying a grizzly bear kite on a 45 ft string. If Mr. Perez is 5.7 ft tall and the kite is 29 ft off the ground, what is the angle of elevation?

Respuesta :

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Draw a Right triangle in your head

The hypotenuse would be 45 ft and the opposite side of where Mr. Perez is standing would be the altitude of the kite plus Mr. Perez's height.

So to find the angle you can simply use the inverse of Sin(x)

Sin^-1(x)=[tex]\frac{34.7}{45}[/tex] and solve

x=50.45
