Answer: He is lying in the supine position

Step-by-step explanation:

The supine position is opposite to the prone position. In this the body lies horizontally. In this the face and torso remains up and the back touch the surface where the body is lying. This position is used in the surgical procedures.

The given situation is the example of the supine position as Kyle is lying on his back.
