    Question

    From the top of a cliff 100 meter high, the angles of

    depression of the top and bottom of a tower are 45Β° and 60Β° respectively. The height of the tower is
    A A Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B B Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C C Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D D Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    Let height of tower, be x in βˆ†AEC => tan 45Β° = AE / CE => 1 = (100 – x) / CE => CE = 100-x βˆ†ABD tan 60Β° = AB / BD => √3 = 100 / CE (CE = BD) => (100 – x) Γ— √3 = 100 => 100 – x = (100 / √3) => x = 100 – 100 / √3 => x = 100 (1 – 1 / 100 / √3) => x = 100/ 3 (3 – √3)
