The angle of elevation of the top of a vertical tower from a point A, due east of it is . The angle of elevation of the top of the same tower from a point B, due south of A is . If the distance between A and B is , then the height of the tower (in meters), is:
Solution
Let height of the tower be 'H' Let
In In
Since, is a right-angled triangle. Pythagoras Theorem
