The string of a kite forms a right angle triangle with the ground. The length of the string represents the hypotenuse of the right angle triangle. The height of the kite represents the opposite side of the right angle triangle.

To determine the height of the kite, we would apply the sine trigonometric ratio which is expressed as

Sin θ = opposite side/hypotenuse.

1) if the kite makes an angle of 25° with the ground, then the height, h would be

Sin 25 = h/50

h = 50Sin25 = 50 × 0.4226

h = 21.1 feet

2) if the kite makes an angle of 45° with the ground, then the height, h would be

Sin 45 = h/50

h = 50Sin45 = 50 × 0.7071

h = 35.4 feet

The approximate difference in the height of the kite is

35.4 - 21.1 = 14.3 feet

Find the distance between the two points in simplest radical form.

sweet-ann [11.9K]

Answer:

3 $\sqrt{13}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Calculate the distance using the distance formula

d = $\sqrt{(x_{2}-x_{1})^2+(y_{2}-y_{1})^2 }$

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (- 9, 8) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (- 3, - 1)

d = $\sqrt{(-3-(-9))^2+(-1-8)^2}$

= $\sqrt{(-3+9)^2+(-9)^2}$

= $\sqrt{6^2+81}$

= $\sqrt{36+81}$

= $\sqrt{117}$

= $\sqrt{9(13)}$

= $\sqrt{9}$ × $\sqrt{13}$

= 3 $\sqrt{13}$
