A man standing at a point P is watching the top of a tower, which makes an angle of elevation of 30º with the man's eye. The man walks some distance towards the tower to watch its top and the angle of the elevation becomes 60º. What is the distance between the base of the tower and the point P?

Your question has insufficient data to fully solve the problem. Yet, I solved it taking the missing things as variables.
Use equation 1 if the height of the tower is given.
Use the equation 2, if the height of the tower isn't given but the distance of the point where the angle of elevation is 60°, from the base is given.
