उत्तर
Let A be the position of the kite and AC be the length of the string of the kite.
Suppose θ be the angle of elevation of the kite at the ground.
It is given that, AB = 30 m and AC = 60 m.
In right ΔABC:
`sinO/= (AB)/(AC)` `[therefore=(\text{Perpendicular})/(text{Hypotenuse})]`
`thereforesinO/=30/60`
`rArrsinO/=1/2`
`rArr sinO/=sin30^@`
`rArrsinO/=sin30^@`
`rArr=O/=30^@`
Thus, the angle of elevation of the kite at the ground is 30°.
Hence, the correct answer is B
