Answer:
distance of the hill from the ship is 17.32 m
height of the hill will be 11.82 m
Step-by-step explanation:
Let AB be the ship, AB = 10 m
CD be the mountain with c as top , D as bottom and E as the point 10 m from D and is equivalent to A
In triangle ABD
tan 30 = AB/BD
=> 0.577 = 10/BD
=> BD = 17.32
=> AE = BD = 17.32
hence distance of the hill from the ship = BD = 17.32 m
In triangle AEC,
tan 6 = CE/AE
=> 0.105 = CE/17.32
=> CE = 1.82
Hence height of the hill = CD = CE + ED = 1.82 + 10 = 11.82 m
