Answer 1

QUESTION :

• A tree is broken at a height of 12 m from the ground and its top touches the ground at distance of 5 m from the base of the tree. Find the original height of the tree.

ANSWER :

• "18 m"

SOLUTION :

• According to the given statement the sketch we get is right angled triangle

${rq}^{2} = {pr }^{2} + {pq}^{2}$

${5}^{2} + {12}^{2}$

=> 25 + 144

=> 169

∴ RQ = 169−−−√169 = 13m

∴ The original height of the tree is PR+RS = 5 + 13 => 18 m.
