Question

Micah is flying a kite and has used all of the 50 meters of the string. If the kite is 13 meters above the ground, what is the angle of elevation that the boy has when looking up at the kite?

Answer 1

Answer:

60.0735651 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

So the hypotenuse is 50 and the vertical leg is 13

For the angle, you need to find the sine (opposite and hypotenuse)

sin(x) = 13/50

x = asin(13/50)

x = 60.0735651
