Solveit, if you have not done calculus yet your answer was excellent!

Good work Solveit :)

Thanks Solveit, 

So that means that the kite is approx 184.7 feet above the ground !

Don't forget to put the units in your final answer     

I do not thnk 7up has a specific role in Camelot does he Rosala?

I know the 2 of you are good friends but he is not here very often ://

Density is weight per volume but you need units :/

Mathsbitch, why are you rude to people?  

Do you have some huge chip on your shoulder the size of Mt Everest?

That is what I think that your problems is.....

I have seen you give some good answers.  

You could fit in here nicely if you wanted to and you could make some real friends.  

Why are you so intent on alientating everyone?

Solveit,

Your answer is very good but you would have been better off to stick to exact values.

AD =sqrt (10)

AB = 2*sqrt(10)

so     AB/AD = 2

I am sure that this would be true for the other ratios that you looked at as well.

So the triangles are similar AND the dimensions of the bigger one are exactly twice that of the smaller one  :))

Nice work solveit :)

Good work Solveit,

I have not checked it thoroughly but it looks good.

I would suggest that you use calculus to find the minimum rather than using a graph generated by Desmos.

Do you know how to do that?

Thanks Ninjahamster, you have put in a lot of work there.

Welcome to the forum too.

I woud just have said

sin(x+y) = cos(90-x-y)

But your answer is much more comprehensive :)
