The height of the tower is 50m.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the height of the tower be AD and the B be a point x metres away.
Now, in ΔDAB:
Tan60= AD÷x
Tan60= H÷x
So, H= x-----(1)
Now, let point C be x+100 metres away from the tower,
Then tan30= H÷(x+100)
From equation1, putting the value of H
1 ÷ = x ÷ (x+100)
1= 3x ÷(x+100)
(x+100)= 3x
100= 2x
x= 50m
Now, putting the value of x in equation 1:
H= 50m
Result:
The height of the tower is 50m.
