Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Given distance of person from tower =25cm
And angle of elevation =30°
Now the tower,ground and person forms a right angle triangle.
Therefore from right triangle we get-
Tan30°=height of the tower/distance of person from tower. ( since tan theta = perpendicular/base)
Or 1/root 3= height of the tower /25cm
Or. 25cm =root 3×height of tower
Or. 25/root3= height of the tower
Now by rationalizing,
25×root3/root3×root3=heoght of tower
= 25root3/3
Therefore h of the tower= 25root3/3
