what is the answer to this "Tucker was standing 5 feet from the tree that his kite is stuck. If the kite string 13 feet long, how high in the tree is the kite?" I'm having a hard time on it
Did you get Tucker from Red vs Blue
Bow Chicka Bow Wow
:p
This is a right triangle problem
The distance he is from the tree is one leg and the string length is the hypotenuse.....so....the distance that the kite is up the tree is given by :
√ [13^2 - 5^2 ] =
√[169 - 25] =
√144 =
12 ft
