A man standing on the deck of the ship which is 10 m above the sea level, observes the angle of elevation of the
top of the cloud as 30° and angle of depression of its reflection in the sea was found to be 60°. Find the height
of the cloud and also the horizontal distance of the cloud from the ship.

HEY!!!

Let AB=10m, cliff of a ship where man is standing

Let AB=10m, cliff of a ship where man is standingLet CE be the hill.

Let AB=10m, cliff of a ship where man is standingLet CE be the hill.CD=AB=10m

In △ADE

In △ADE tan60°= h/x

 \sqrt{3} x = h

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

In △ABC

In △ABC tan30°=

 \frac{10}{x}

  \frac{1}{ \sqrt{3} }  = \frac{10}{x}

x =  10 \sqrt{3}

We have two equations (1) & (2), Multiplying them we get,

 {x}^{2}  = 10h

h=30m

∴CE=CD+DE=10+30=40m
