Question

From the top of a tower 50√3 m high the angles of depression of the top and bottom of a pole are observed to be 45° and 60°respectively. Find the height of the pole.

Answer 1

Answer:

actually your question is wrong ! 50m not 50 root 3 m

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the height of the pole be h and the distance between the pole and tower be x.

It can be observed that,

tan60∘=x50

3=x50

x=350

And,

tan45∘=x50−h

1=x50−h

50−h=x

50−h=350

h=50−350

h=350(3−1)

h=21.1m

Therefore, the height of the pole is 21.1m.
