Question

The angle of elevation from the top point of the tower is 38 degree from a point A, south of it and 29 degree from the point B east of it. The distance between A and B is 50 Meters. Find the height of the Tower..?

Answer 1

so a^2=500
=> a=10√5=22.36m (approx)
•°• The height of the tower is approximately 22.36m
....Just imagine the situation to visualise how the figure would be....
hope it helps....☺☺

Answer 2

Answer:22.6 m

Explanation:

Basically what we have to do is, we have to keep in mind to use the pythagoras's formula to find the height that is the height of the tower

So at first we will be finding the length of both the sides or base that is OA and OB and it has to be in terms of h, where we have let OC be

Because we are dealing with all right angled triangle, as it is mentioned SOUTH and EAST

So 90 degree there

So we have 3 right angled triangles COA,COB and AOB

In COA and COB

We are provided with angle only and nothing else

So in there we, use tan Theta formula and we take CO is h

Then using pythagoras's formula we find h
