    Question

    From a point 50 meters away from the base of a tower,

    the angle of elevation of the top of the tower is 30°. Find the height of the tower.
    A 25√3/3 meters Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B 25 meters Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C 50√3/3 meters Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D 50 meters Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    Let the height of the tower be h meters. Using the tan function, tan 30° = height/base = h/50 √3/3 = h/50 h = (50 * √3) / 3 = 50√3 / 3 meters.
