Question

A tree of height 32 metre breaks due to wind and stop cause to the ground at the distance of 16 m from the foot of the tree find the height at which the tree is broken

Answer 1

Answer:

=16√3 metre.

Step-by-step explanation:

1. draw a right-angled triangle whose base= 16m and hypotenuse= 32m.
2. for finding perpendicular, apply Pythagoras theorem.
3. p2=h2 - b2

Answer 2

Let's think that,

AC is length of broken tree

AB is the height

BC is the base

AC square =AB square + BC square

AC square = 32 square + 16 square

AC square = 32*32 + 16*16

AC square = 1024 + 256

AC square = 1280

AC square = 1280 under root

take out the square root and add it to 32 then, you can get your answer.
