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)
Answer:
80%
Step-by-step explanation:
from $25 to $45
$45/$25 = 1.8
$25 x 1.8 = $45
therefore, the increase is 80%
Yeah I think so I just took a wild guess and looked at my measurement sheet
