Question

as observed from the top of a 75 metre high tower the angle of depression of two ships are 30 degree and 45 degree if the two ships are on opposite side of the tower find the distance between the two ships​

Answer 1

Answer:75(√3+1)

Step-by-step explanation:

Here,

Given: height of tower =75m

Now, let x be the distance between the tower and the ship 'A' making an angle of depression 30°

Tan30°=75\x

1\√3=75\x

X=75√3

Now, let y be the distance between the tower and the ship 'B' making an angle of 45°.

Then, tan45°=75\y

1=75\y

Y=75

Now, the distance between the two ships A and B = x + y

Putting the value of x and y

Therefore,

The distance between the two ships=75(√3+1)
