Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let AB and CD be the given pillars and let o the point of the observation on the road AC. Then
AngleAOB=60°
Angle COD= 30°
Angle OAB= 90°
Angle OCD=90°
And AC=150 m
Let AB=CD=h
Let OA=x m
Then, OC=(150-x)m
From right∆OAB,we have:
AB/OA= tan60°=√3=>h/x=√3=>h=√3x.....(i)
From right∆OCD,we have:
CD/OC=tan 30=1/√3
=>h/(150-x)=1/√3
=>h=(150-x)/√3....(ii)
From (i) and (ii)
√3x=(150-x)/√3
3x=150-x
x=75/2=37.5
From (i)
h=√3x
h=(37.5)√3
OR
h=37.5*1.732= 64.95(approx)
