Answer:
Width of road= 24 m
Step-by-step explanation:
A road is flanked on either side by continuous rows of houses of height 4 √3 m with no space in between them.
A pedestrian is standing on the median of the road facing a row house.
The angle of elevation from the pedestrian to the top of the house is 30° .
Tan 30° = Height of house / Distance of Median
=> 1/√3 = 4√3/Distance of Median
=> Distance of Median = 12 m
Width of road= 2 * Median Distance
=> Width of road= 2 * 12
=> Width of road= 24 m
