A kite flying 20 ft. above the ground is attached to ta string 80ft. long. The string is being held by a person on the ground. Find the angle between the string and the ground.

Respuesta :

Making it as a right angled triangle 

perpendicular(p)= 20 ft
hypotenuse(h) = 80 ft

p/h= 20/80
     =1/4

arcsin(1/4)= 14.5 degree.
