Marks: +1, -0

The string of a kite is

158 \mathrm{~m}

long and it makes an angle of

30^{\circ}

with the horizontal. What is the height (in

\mathrm{m}

) of the kite? Assume there is no slack in the string.

Solution:

Given, Here, length of string

A B=158 {m}

△ A B C

\sin 30^{∘} \;\; =\;{A C}/{A B}

\;{1}/{2} \;\; =\;{A C}/{158}

A C=79

∴

Height of kite

=158 {m}
