Answer: the height of the kite is 106.065 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

The length of the kite represents the hypotenuse of the right angle triangle. The height of the kite represents the opposite side of the right angle triangle.

To determine x, the height of the kite, we would apply the sine trigonometric ratio which is expressed as

Sin θ = opposite side/hypotenuse

Therefore,

Sin 45 = x/150

Cross multiplying, it becomes

x = 150Sin45 = 150 × 0.7071

x = 106.065 ft
