Question

4. If the angle of elevation of a tower as seen from a distance of 30 m from its foot is 600 then the
height of the tower is
30
a)
13
13
b) 30 73 m
d) none
30
-
m​

Answer 1

Answer:

10 m

Step-by-step explanation:

Let h= height of second tower, d=distance between two towers

height of first tower = 30 m

From given data,

30 / d = tan 60∘ = √3

h / d = tan 30∘ = 1 / √3

√3h = d,30 = d√3

h = 10 m, d = 10 / √3m

Therefore, height of the other tower is 10 m.
