3D Trig. Question: "Miguel is 90m due west of Consuella on a level road. He sees that the angle of elevation of a kite flown by their son is 30°, while Consuella sees that it is due north at an angle of elevation of 38°. What is the height of the kite?" Diagram drawn: http://puu.sh/n7xmZ/d6a81423ef.jpg (Crudely Drawn) Net of Triangular Pyramid: http://puu.sh/n7nep/0c81c22207.jpg I don't understand at all how to work this out, any help is appreciated
