The height of the kite is 4.89 feet
Explanation
The length of the line attached to the kite=7 feet
The length of the shadow that is cast on the ground=5 feet
the system forms a right angled triangle where the taught string of the kite is the hypotenuse, the shadow is the base and the height of the kite above the ground is the height.
H=7 feet
b=5 feet
using pythagoras theorem
The kite is 4.89 feet above the ground
Answer:
point - slope form
y - 1 = 3 (x-0)
Step-by-step explanation:
<u><em>step(i):-</em></u>
Given points are (0,1) and (2,7)
The slope of the line
m =3
<u><em>Step(ii):-</em></u>
point -slope form
y - y₁ = m(x-x₁)
Equation of the straight line passing through the point (0,1) and having slope 'm' = 3
y - 1 = 3 (x-0)
y -1 = 3x
3x - y +1=0
Equation of the straight line passing through the point (0,1) and having slope 'm' = 3 is 3x -y +1=0
