Patty Cake and Jim Nasium are flying a kite. Patty is 200 m away from Jim who is holding the kite. Facing Jim, Patty finds the angle of elevation of the kite is 40 degrees . If the kite string makes an angle of 85 degrees with the ground, find the amount of string let out by Jim.

Length of the string let out by Jim is 156.9 m.

Step-by-step explanation:

From the figure attached,

Jim observes the angle of elevation of the kite = 85°

And Patty observes the angle of elevation of the kite = 40°

Angle formed between the lines joining kite to Jim and Patty = 180° - (85 + 40)° = 55°

Distance between Jim and Patty = 200 m

Let the length of the string between Jim and the kite = x meters

By applying Sine rule in the triangle formed between Jim, Patty and the kite,

x =

x = 156.94 m

  ≈ 156.9 m

Therefore, length of the kite string from Jim and the kite is 156.9 m.

false

step-by-step explanation:

false : it can not go to 9 the highest that part can go is 7
