HERE IS UR QUESTION ❤️❤️❤️

AT SOME TIME OF THE DAY THE LENGTH OF THE SHADOW OF A TOWER IS EQUAL TO ITS HEIGHT, FIND THE SUN'S ALTITUDE AT THE TIME???

Fast ........✌️✌️✌️✌️✌️

Answer 1

In this type of Questions, We can only find the angle not elevation.

Let the length of the shadow of a tower be x.

Height of the shadow of the tower be y.

Given that length of shadow of a tower is equal to its height.

= > x = y.

Now,

We know that Tan theta = Height/Base

= > Tan theta= y/y

= > Tan theta = 1

= > theta = 45.

Therefore, the angle of elevation is 45 degrees.

Hope this helps!

Answer 2

Hey mate

Here is ur answer

Let the length of the shadow be x units.

Height of the shadow = x units

Let the angle be A°

Then Tan A° = x / x

Tan A° = 1

A° = 45° ( as Tan45° = 1)

Sun's altitude = 45
