Step-by-step explanation:

Given from a point on the ground the angle of elevation of the bottom and top of a transmission Tower fixed at the top of a 20 m high building are 45 degree and 60 degree respectively find the height of the tower  

  • Let the building be PQ and tower be RP
  • So height of the building is 20 m.
  • So PQ = 20 m
  • Let point of ground be A
  • Now angle of elevation from point A to bottom of tower is 45 degree
  • So angle PAQ = 45 degree
  • Angle of elevation from point A to top of tower R = 60 degree
  • So angle RAQ = 60 degree
  • We need to find PR
  • Now angle PQA = 90 degree
  • So from triangle PAQ we have
  • tan theta = opp side / adj side
  • tan A = PQ / AQ
  • tan 45 = 20 / AQ
  •   1 = 20 / AQ
  • Or AQ = 20 m
  • Similarly from triangle RAQ
  •          tan A = QR / AQ
  •          tan 60 = QR / AQ
  •           √3 = QR / 20
  •             QR = 20 √3
  •  Now PQ + PR = 20√3
  •            20 + PR = 20√3
  •         PR = 20√3 – 20
  •         PR = 20 (√3 – 1) m
  • Therefore the height of the tower = PR = 20 (√3 – 1) m
