Answer:

40.9°

Step-by-step explanation:

tan 60 = h/l = √3

tan∝ = h/2l = √3/2

∝ = tan∧-1 (√3/2) = 40.9°

The new angel of elevation form the new position of the bird perched is \theta=\tan^{-1}\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}.

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided information.

Let AB is x and BC is the height of tree = h.

D represents the Mid point which is half way down,

It is given that ∠CAB = 60° and we need to find the value of ∠DAB.

In ΔABC

\tan60^0=\frac{BC}{AB}

\sqrt{3}=\frac{h}{x}

h=\sqrt{3}x

In ΔDBA

\tan\theta=\frac{DB}{AB}

\tan\theta=\frac{\frac{h}{2}}{x}

\tan\theta=\frac{h}{2x}

Substitute the value of h in \tan\theta=\frac{h}{2x}

\tan\theta=\frac{\sqrt{3}x}{2x}

\tan\theta=\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}

\theta=\tan^{-1}\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}

The new angel of elevation form the new position of the bird perched is \theta=\tan^{-1}\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}.
