You are flying a kite and want to know its angle of elevation. The string on the kite is 44 meters long and the kite is level with the top of a building that you know is 21 meters high. Use an inverse trigonometric function to find the angle of elevation of the kite.

use sine inverse since you have the lengths of both the hypothenuse and opposite of the triangle formed:)

The angle of elevation of the kite will be [tex]28.5^o[/tex] by using an inverse trigonometric function.

What is trigonometry?

Trigonometry is the branch of mathematics dealing with the relations of the sides and angles of triangles and with the relevant functions of any angles.

Here i have attached the figure which shows the right angle triangle made by the kite.

Now from the sin inverse formula:

[tex]Sin \theta=\dfrac{P}{H}[/tex]

[tex]Sin \theta=\dfrac{21}{44}[/tex]

[tex]\theta =Sin^{-1} \dfrac{21}{44}=28.5^o[/tex]

Hence the angle of elevation of the kite will be [tex]28.5^o[/tex] by using an inverse trigonometric function.
