A boy flying a kite releases 140m of string. The string makes an angle of 62° with the ground.
a) Assuming that the string is taut, how high is the kite above the string?
b) The wind blows stronger and the kite is carried 50m further away from the boy. Assuming that the boy releases more string and there is no change in the height of the kite above, calculate the angle that the string now makes with the ground.
