He is wrong because 12:55 is one hr and you still need to get to 1:25 but he only got to 1:01 so he did not get the correct answer
Answer:
2/3
Step-by-step explanation:
Use the formula for finding gradient.
Answer: a) It will be a right triangle with a hypotenuse of 75 and a vertical leg that is 62.
b) The length of the kite string is 75 (given in the problem). However, I believe you are looking for the distance from the spot on the ground beneath the kite to Janet. That is about 42.2 m.
To find the missing distance in the right triangle. You have to use the Pythagorean Theorem. I set it up and solve it below.
a^2 + b^2 = c^2
x^2 + 62^2 = 75^2
x^2 + 3844 = 5625
x^2 = 1781
x = 42.2 (about)
