A kite flies on a taut string of length 50m inclined at tan angle 54o to the horizontal ground. The height of the kite above the ground is
- 50 tan 30o
-
50 sin 54o
- 50 tan 54o
- 50 sin 36o
The correct answer is: B
Explanation
From the diagram above,
Sin 54º = \(\frac{\text{OPP}}{\text{HYP}}\)
Sin 54º = \(\frac{\text{x}}{50}\)
x = 50 Sin 54º
