In effect, you have a right-angled triangle with an adjacent angle of 41.3o and an opposite side of 114 feet. There are several ways to find the length of the string (which in effect is the hypotenuse of the triangle), but in this case, the quickest way is to use the sine ratio. For any right-angled triangle: sin angle = opposite/hypotenuse. Rearranging the equation: hypotenuse = opposite/sin angle hypotenuse = 114/sin 41.3o hypotenuse = 172.7268362 feet. Therefore, the string is 173 feet in length correct to the nearest foot.

If a radio transmission tower is 190 feet tall how long should a guy wire be if it is to be attached 9 feet from the top and is to make an angle of 21 degrees with the ground?
A guy wire attached to a tower 181 feet from the base (190 - 9) and making an angle of 21 degrees with respect to the ground is 505 feet long. sin (21) = 181 / x x = 181 / sin (21) Note: An angle of 21 degrees with respect to the ground is unrealistic. It is probably more correct to say 21 degrees with respect to the tower, which is 69 degrees with respect to the ground. In this case, the guy wire is 194 feet long.
Find the reference angle for the angle 59 degrees?
90 degrees
How much larger is the supplement of a 57 degree angle than the complement of a 75 degree angle?
The supplementary angle of 57 degrees is 123 degrees The complementary angle of 75 degrees is 15 degrees So: 123 minus 15 = 108 degrees
A hunter hidden in a tree 90 feet above the ground spots two deer in the forest one is due West at the angle of depression of 24 degrees and the other is due at an angle of depression of 58 degrees?
Pancakes, because astronauts only kayak with pineapples.
What is a 213 degree angle?
An angle of 213 degrees is a reflex angle
The angle of land is measured by this?
Tie a weight to a piece of string. Hold the other end of the string to create a makeshift pendulum. Gravity will make the weighted string point directly to the Earth's center of mass. Measure the angle between the ground and the string.
In an A-framed house the two sides extend from the ground to form 34 angle at the peak. what angle does each side form from the ground?
Each base angle is 73 degrees
How much string to fly kite 200 ft in the air?
It depends on the angle that your string is to the ground. At a 45° angle it would take 200 ft * sqrt(2) = 282.843 feet for the hypotenuse of the triangle, for example. For any angle, it is (200 ft) / sin(angle)
The string on a kite is tight and makes an angle of 25 degrees with the horizontal Find the height of the kite if 150 feet is let out and the end of the string is 4.5 feet above the ground?
Use the sine ratio to find the height of the kite: sine = opposite (height of kite with the horizontal) divided by the hypotenuse (the string) Rearrange the formula: sine*hypotenuse = opposite sine 25 degrees*150 = 63.39273926 feet Height of kite above the ground: 63.39273926+4.5 = 67.89273926 feet Therefore the kite is 68 feet above the ground to the nearest foot
A ladder should be erected at an angle to the ground of A 35 degrees B 75 degrees C 65 degrees D 85 degrees?
C 65
How do you find the length of an arc in a circle?
You can measure it with a string. If you want to calculate it based on other measurements, you can multiply the radius times the angle, assuming the angle is in radians. If the angle is in degrees, convert it to radians first.
How do you make a right angle out of a piece of string?
All you have to do to make a right angle out of a piece of string is put the string in the shape of an L. This will make a right angle
What is angular amplitude?
When you put a string on a hook, and hold it on an angle ie: . ..../ .../ ../ and then u want to know the angle in which you let go: .... ../| ./ | /_| ^---------this is the angle in which you choose the amplitude-this one is around 10 degrees (AND IGNORE THE PERIODS ON THE LEFT)
Kite is 36 ft above the ground if the string of the kite makes a 58 degree angle with the ground what is the leg?
The leg opposite the 58 degree angle is the height of the kite above the ground. So, the leg is 36 ft.
What is 90 angle degrees?
A right angle is an angle of 90 degrees.
What kind of angle is 175 degrees?
An angle of 175 degrees is an obtuse angle
If an angle is obtuse then it has a measure of 120 degrees?
When an angle has a measure of 120 degrees, it is an obtuse angle. When an angle is an obtuse angle its measure is between 90 and 180 degrees. That is: 90 degrees < obtuse angle < 180 degrees.
