Question

chapter 9 math NCERT solutions class 10 question number 11​

Answer 1

Answer:

Solution: Given, AB is the height of the tower.

DC = 20 m (given)

As per given diagram, In right ΔABD,

tan 30° = AB/BD

1/√3 = AB/(20+BC)

AB = (20+BC)/√3 … (i)

Again,

In right ΔABC,

tan 60° = AB/BC

√3 = AB/BC

AB = √3 BC … (ii)

From equation (i) and (ii)

√3 BC = (20+BC)/√3

3 BC = 20 + BC

2 BC = 20

BC = 10

Putting the value of BC in equation (ii)

AB = 10√3

This implies, the height of the tower is 10√3 m and the width of the canal is 10 m.
