Answer:
Please provide the full data and full question ,
for solving height of tower please see the following example -
Q:The angle of elevation of the top of a vertical tower from a point on the ground is 60 degree. From another point 10m vertically above the first, its angle of elevation is 45 degree. Find the height of the tower.
Step-by-step explanation:
Ans:let height of tower = h + 10m
let dist. between base of tower and obs. pt. = z
at first angle it makes with ground = 60 degree
tan(60) = sqrt{3} = (h+ 10)/z = 1.732 . . . . . . (eq 1)
next angle = 45 degree
pt is 10 m above the ground
tan(45)= 1 = h/z
:. h=z . . . . . . . . . (eq. 2)
substituting value of z in eq. 1
h+ 10 = 1.732 h
:. h = 13.66 m
height of tower = h + 10m = 13.66+10 = 23.66 m
