Question
A person is standing at a point 120 meters away from a
tower. The angle of elevation to the top of the tower is 60°. If the height of the tower increases by 20 meters, the angle of elevation becomes 75°. Find the original height of the tower.Solution
Let the original height of the tower be h meters. From the angle of elevation of 60°: tan 60° = h / 120 → √3 = h / 120 h = 120√3. Answer: c) 120√3 m
