Question

If shadow and height of the pole are equal then what is the angle of elevation of sun

Answer 1

Answer:

45 degree

Step-by-step explanation:

In right angle ΔABC, AB represents the vertical pole and BC represents the shadow on the ground.θ represents angle of elevation the sun.

tan θ = h / x

But length of shadow = height of the tower, i.e. h = x.

tan θ = h/ h = 1

tan θ = tan 45°

θ = 45°

Thus, angle of elevation of the sun ☀️ is 45

Answer 2

let the shadow of pole =x

by the condition ,

the height of pole=x

we know ,

tan45°=1

-

- -. the angle of elevation is 45°.
