Sᴏʟᴜᴛɪᴏɴ :-
( Refer To Image First.)
From image we have :-
→ AB = Tower .
→ BD = x m.
→ BC = (30 + x) m.
→ DC = 30m (Given).
Now, in Rt. ∆ABD we Have :-
→ Tan60° = AB / BD
→ √3 = AB / x
→ AB = √3x . ---------- Equation (1).
Similarly,
in Rt. ∆ABC, we Have :-
→ Tan30° = AB / BC
→ (1/√3) = AB / (x + 30)
→ √3AB = (x + 30)
→ AB = (x + 30) / √3
→ AB = { (x + 30) / √3} * (√3/√3)
→ AB = √3(x + 30) / 3 ------- Equation (2).
Comparing Both Equations Now, we get,
→ √3x = √3(x + 30) / 3
→ 3x = x + 30
→ 3x - x = 30
→ 2x = 30
→ x = 15 m.
Hence ,
→ Height of Tower = AB = √3x = √3 * 15 = 15√3 m (Ans).
Therefore, Height of Tower will be 15√3 m.
Solution:
AB is the tower and BC is the length of the shadow when the sun's altitude is 60° .The angle of elevation of the top of the tower from the tip of the shadow is 60° and DB is the length of the shadow ,When the angle of elevation is 30°
✿Now ,let be h m and BC be x m. According to the question,DB is 30m longer than BC.
so,
→DB = (40+x)
✿Now ,we have two right triangles ABC and ABD.
In∆ABC,
→tan60° = AB/BC
→√3 = h/x
In ∆ABD,
→tan30°= AB/BD
→1/√3 = h/(x+30)
✿From (1),we have
→h = x√3
◕Putting this value in(2) ,we get (x√3)√3=x+30
→3x=x+30
→3x-x=30
→2x=30
→x=30/2
→x=15
So,
→h= 15/√3
