It helps if you draw a triangle. Draw a horizontal segment. That is the ground. Now at the left end start a new segment that goes up to the right at approximately 15 degrees until it its other endpoint directly above the right endpoint of the horizontal segment. Connect these two endpoints. The vertical side on the right shows the height of the kite. The hypotenuse is the string.

For the 15-deg angle, the height of the triangle is the opposite leg, and the string is the hypotenuse. The trig ratio that relates the opposite leg tot he hypotenuse is the sine.

$\sin A = \dfrac{opp}{hyp}$

$\sin 15^\circ = \dfrac{h}{50~yd}$

$(50~yd)\sin 15^\circ = h$

$h = (50~yd)(0.2588)$

$h = 12.9~yd$

A square acre of land is 4,840 square yards. The length of one side of the square is between which of the following?

maks197457 [2]

Hi there!

If we know the area is a square, we can use the formula for the area of a square to figure out what one side would be between. Knowing the value allows us to determine what it would be between. In this case, it is between 69 and 70.

WORK:
squareroot(4840) = 69.6

ANSWER:
Option B - 69 yd and 70 yd
