Answer:

Solution given:

angle of elevation [A]=29°

height [p]=?

base[b]=400ft

since

relationship between base and height is given by Tan angle

we have

Tan 29°=opposite/adjacent

Tan29°=perpendicular [P]/base[b]=P/400

P=Tan29*400

P=221.72ft

<u>the</u><u> </u><u>height</u><u> </u><u>of</u><u> </u><u>the kite flying over the </u><u>building</u><u> </u><u>is</u><u> </u><u>2</u><u>2</u><u>1</u><u>.</u><u>7</u><u>2</u><u>f</u><u>t</u>
