hey
this is the answer of your question..
I HOPE IT IS HELPFUL FOR YOU..
ANSWER :–
Height of building = 50/3 m
EXPLANATION :–
GIVEN :–
• The angle of elevation of the top of a building from the foot of the tower is 30°.
• The angle of elevation of the top of the tower from the foot of the building is 60°.
• height of building is 50 m.
TO FIND :–
Height of building .
SOLUTION :–
➨ Let AB = h (height of building)
➨ In △ BCD –
=> tan(60⁰) = 50/BC
=> √3 = 50/BC
=> BC = 50/√3 m ------(1)
➨ In △ ABC –
=> tan(30⁰) = AB/BC
=> 1/√3 = h/(50/√3) ( using equation (1) )
=> h = [50/√3]× [1/√3]
=> h = (50/3) m
➨ Hence , Height of building is (50/3) m.
