A kite flying in the air has an 11-ft line attached to it. Its line is pulled taut and casts a 7-ft shadow. Find the height of the kite. If necessary, round your answer to the nearest tenth.

The height of the kite is 8.5 feet.

If the kite has an 11 ft line attached to it and it casts an 7 feet shadow, we will have a rectangle triangle (see picture below).

To find the height x of the kite, we can apply the Pythagorean theorem.

x² = 11² - 7²

x² = 121 - 49

x² = 72

x =√72

she was supposed to add the hours(38.5) and multiply the amount of money she earned(7.50) resulting in $288.75 .

correct me if i'm wrong and if it is i'm truly sorry.
