Question

The angle of elevation of the top of a building from the foot of
the tower is
30° and the angle of elevation of the top of the tower from
the foot of the building is 60° If the tower is 50 m high, find
the height of the building

Gopal Mohanty · Accepted Answer

Let AB be the building and CD be the tower In ΔCDB,

In ΔABD,

Therefore, the height of the building is

The angle of elevation of the top of a building from the foot of the tower is 30° and the angle of elevation of the top of the tower from the foot of the building is 60°. If the tower is 50 m high, find the height of the building.
