A kite is 38 m above the ground. The angle the kite string makes with the ground is 42°. How long is the kite string to the nearest meter? Please help

sin of 42 = opposite side/ hypotenuse          hypotenuse is what you are looking for and opposite side is 38

sin42 = 38/hypotenuse           solve for hypotenuse (the kite string length)
