Question : From the top of a building 60 metres high, the angles of depression of the top and bottom of a tower are observed to be $30^{\circ}$ and $60^{\circ}$, respectively. The height of the tower in metres is:

Option 1: 40

Option 2: 45

Option 3: 50

Option 4: 55

Team Careers360 14th Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: 40


Solution :
Let $AB$ be the building and $CD$ be the tower such that $\angle BDE=30^{\circ},\angle BCA=60^{\circ}$ and $AB$ = 60 m.
Let $CA = DE = x$ m.
From $\Delta CAB$,
$\frac{CA}{AB}=\cot 60^{\circ}=\frac{1}{\sqrt{3}}$
$\Rightarrow \frac{x}{60}=\frac{1}{\sqrt{3}}$
$\Rightarrow x=60\times \frac{1}{\sqrt{3}}$
$\Rightarrow x=60\times \frac{1}{\sqrt{3}}\times \frac{\sqrt{3}}{\sqrt{3}}=20\sqrt{3}$ m.
$\Rightarrow CA=DE=20\sqrt{3}...(i)$
