In the given figure, BC represents the unbroken part of the tree. Point C represents the point where the tree broke and CA represents the broken part of the tree. Triangle ABC, thus formed, is right-angled at B.

Applying Pythagoras theorem in ?ABC,

AC2?= BC2?+ AB2

AC2?= (5 m)2?+ (12 m)2?

In the given figure, BC represents the unbroken part of the tree. Point C represents the point where the tree broke and CA represents the broken part of the tree. Triangle ABC, thus formed, is right-angled at B.

Applying Pythagoras theorem in ?ABC,

AC2?= BC2?+ AB2

AC2?= (5 m)2?+ (12 m)2

AC2?= 25 m2?+ 144 m2?= 169 m2

AC = 13 m

Thus, original height of the tree = AC + CB = 13 m + 5 m = 18 m



AC2?= 25 m2?+ 144 m2?= 169 m2

AC = 13 m

Thus, original height of the tree = AC + CB = 13 m + 5 m = 18 m
