The two palm trees are of equal heights and are standing opposite each
other on either side of the river, which is 80 m wide. From a point O
between them on the river the angles of elevation of the top of the trees
are 60° and 30°, respectively. Find the height of the trees and the
distances of the point O from the trees.

Answer:
height of tree is 20 root 3 and distance from point O is 20 and 60 .
Step-by-step explanation:
Let height be H
and distance from point o is X and another is (80- X)
so we have 2 triangles ,ABO and DEO
in triangle ABO
AB/BC------tan 30
H/X --- 1/root 3
so root 3H -----X---------------(1)
in triangle DEO
DE/CE. --- tan60
H/80- X ----- root 3
H ----80 root 3 - 3H
H+ 3H -------80root 3
4H----- 80root 3
H----80root 3 / 4
H----20 root 3
putting value of H in (1)
root 3 multiply by 20 root 3 ----- X
20 multiply 3 ----- X
60----- X
and another is 80- X
80-60
20
