A young boy let’s out 30 feet of string on his kite. If the angle of elevation from the boy to his kite is 27”, how high is the
const2013 [10]

Answer:

The height of the kite from the ground is 13.617 feet  

Step-by-step explanation:

Given as :

The measure of the string = 30 feet

The angle of elevation from the boy to his kite = 27°

Let the height of the kite from ground = H feet

So, From Triangle

Sin angle = \dfrac{\textrm perpendicular}{\textrm Hypotenuse}

Or, Sin 27° =  \dfrac{\textrm H}{\textrm 30}

or, H = 30 ×  Sin 27°

I.e H = 30 × 0.4539

∴ H = 13.617 feet

Hence the height of the kite from the ground is 13.617 feet   Answer

To construct the regular hexagon, the radius length AB is used to mark the vertices of the hexagon. Can this method be used to m
True [87]
No, it cannot be used to create other regular inscribed polygons.

This plan only works with a hexagon. If you inscribe a square into a circle, the lengths of the sides will not be equal to the radius.
