Question : The base of a triangle is $12\sqrt{3}$ cm and two angles at the base are 30° and 60°, respectively. The altitude of the triangle is:

Option 1: $12$ cm

Option 2: $6$ cm

Option 3: $10\sqrt{3}$ cm

Option 4: $9$ cm

Team Careers360 24th Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: $9$ cm


Solution :
Let BD be $x$ cm.
$\therefore$ CD =$ (12\sqrt{3} - x) $cm.
$\angle$ADB = $\angle$ADC = 90°
From $\triangle$ ABD,
$\tan 30°=\frac{AD}{BD}$
$⇒\frac{1}{\sqrt{3}}=\frac{AD}{x}$
So, AD = $\frac{x}{\sqrt{3}}$-----------(1)
From $\triangle$ACD,
$\tan 60°=\frac{AD}{CD}$
$⇒\sqrt{3}=\frac{AD}{ (12\sqrt{3} - x)}$
So, AD = $\sqrt{3}(12\sqrt{3}-x)$----------(2)
From 1 and 2, we
