the angle of elevation of a jet plane from a point p on the ground is 60 degrees. after a flight of 15 seconds the angle of elevation changes to 30 degrees.if the jet plane is flying at a constant height of 1500 root 3, find the speed of jet plane in km/h. please solve it with diagram

(Draw diagram based on gives conditions. mark E , D,C points down and A,B points up.)
Tan 60 = AD/ED
= 1500/ED
ED = 1500
Tan 30 = BC/EC
1/ = 1500√3/EC
DE = EC - ED
4500-1500
= 3000
PLANE TRAVELS 3000 m in 15 sec.
speed = Dstance/Time
= 3000/15
200 m/s.
Jet plane speed = 200m/s.
