Let the speed of the car be x units/min. Then, DC = 12x

Let the height of the tower be h units.

We have: ACB = 45o and ADB = 30o

In right triangle ABC,

h = BC

In right triangle ABD,

Required time taken by the car to reach the tower

= 6(1.732 + 1)

= 16.392 minutes


anika100: let me inform you that it's the question of class 10 chapter HEIGHT AND DISTANCE
