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
