$A$ kite is flying at a height of $75 \ m$ from the ground. The string makes an angle $\Theta$ (where $\cot \Theta = 8/15$) with the level ground. Assuming that there is no slack in the string,the length of the string is equal to (in $m$):

  • A
    $75$
  • B
    $85$
  • C
    $40$
  • D
    $65$
