Answer:
cos(theta) = adj/hyp
cos60° = 10/hyp
hyp = 2×10
= 20m
sin(theta) = opp/hyp
opp = 20×root3/2
= 10 root3
= 17.32 m
heightof the tree = opp+hyp
= 20+17.32
= 37.32 m

Let length of tree before windstorm is BD.
After windstorm the upper part of tree C falls from point C to point A on the ground
. Now, let CD = AC = h2 m AB = 10 m
Broken part makes an angle 60° from the ground.
So, ∠CAB = 60°
From right angled ∆ABC tan 60° = BC/AB ⇒ √3 = h1/10 ⇒ h1 = 10√3 and cos 60° = AB/AC ⇒ 1/2 = 10/h2 ⇒ h2 = 10 × 2 = 20 m
Hence, total length of tree BD = BC + CD = h1 + h1
= 10√3 + 20
= 10 × 1.732 + 20
= 17.32 + 20
= 37.32 m
Hence, height of the tree 37.32 m.
