Answer:

74.5°

Step-by-step explanation:

Hannah, the kite and Patricia form the vertices of a right-angled triangle with the hypotenuse side the length of the string L = 60 feet and adjacent side the distance between Hannah and Patricia = d = 16 feet.

Let the angle between the string and the sand be Ф.

By trigonometric ratios,

cosФ = adjacent/hypotenuse

= d/L

= 16 feet/60 feet

= 0.2667

Ф = cos⁻¹(0.2667)

= 74.53°

≅ 74.5°

So, he angle between the string and the sand is Ф = 74.5°

A partial proof was constructed given that MNOP is a parallelogram.
Yanka [14]
A diagram of parallelogram MNOP is attached below

We have side MN || side OP and side MP || NO

Using the rule of angles in parallel lines, ∠M and ∠P are supplementary as well as ∠M and ∠N.

Since ∠M+∠P = 180° and ∠M+∠N=180°, we can conclude that ∠P and ∠N are of equal size. 

∠N and ∠O are supplementary by the rules of angles in parallel lines
∠O and ∠P are supplementary by the rules of angles in parallel lines

∠N+∠O=180° and ∠O+∠P=180°

∠N and ∠P are of equal size

we deduce further that ∠M and ∠O are of equal size

Hence, the correct statement to complete the proof is

<span>∠M ≅ ∠O; ∠N ≅ ∠P
