9. Nat is flying a kite outside but gets a little hungry. They anchor the kite to the ground by tying the string to a post and notices that 200 yards of string have been let out. The kite string makes an angle of 57 degrees with the ground. While Nat eats a snack, they look at the kite and wonder how high it is off the ground.
