Sky high. on a sunny, warm day, a student decides to fly a kite on the college green just to relax. his kite takes off and soars. he lets all 150 feet of the string out and attracts a crowd of onlookers. there is a slight breeze, and a spectator 90 feet away from the student notices that the kite is directly above her. unlike a real kite, this math-question kite has the string going in a straight line from the student to the kite. how high is the kite from the ground?
