A bridge across a river makes an angle of 45 degree with the bank of river if the length of the bridge across the river is hundred metre find the width of the river

  • 1

Let AB = the width of the river and 

AC =  the length of the bridge across the river. 

The bridge AC makes and angle 45° with the river bank.

 

∴ AC = 100 m and ∠CAB = 45°.

 

In ΔBAC,

Thus, the width of the river is
