Answer:
Proved 40√3 m
Step-by-step explanation:
two girls on either side of a cell tower of 30 M height observe it top at the angles of elevation 30° and 60° respectively then show that the distance between two girls is 40 root 3 metres
Height of Tower = 30 m
Girl A - angle of elevation = 30°
Distance of Girl A from Tower Base = A m
tan30° = H/A
=> 1/√3 = 30/A
=> A = 30√3
Girl B - angle of elevation = 60°
Distance of Girl A from Tower Base = B m
tan60° = H/B
=> √3 = 30/B
=> B = 30/√3
As girls are on either side of towers so distance between towers
= 30√3 + 30/√3
= √3 ( 30 + 30/3)
= √3 ( 30 + 10)
= 40√3 m
