Question : The angle of depression of two ships from the top of a lighthouse is $60^{\circ}$ and $45^{\circ}$ towards the east. If the ships are 300 metres apart, the height of the lighthouse (in metres) is:

Option 1: $200\left ( 3+\sqrt{3} \right )$

Option 2: $250\left ( 3+{\sqrt3} \right )$

Option 3: $150\left (3 +{\sqrt3} \right)$

Option 4: $160 \left (3+{\sqrt3} \right)$

Team Careers360 20th Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: $150\left (3 +{\sqrt3} \right)$


Solution :
In $\Delta ABC$
$\tan 60^{\circ} = \frac{AB}{BC}$
$⇒\sqrt{3} = \frac{AB}{BC}$
$⇒AB = \sqrt{3} BC \quad \text{-----------------------(1)}$
In $\Delta ABD$
$\tan 45^{\circ} = \frac{AB}{BD}$
$\Rightarrow 1 = \frac{AB}{BD}$
$⇒AB = BD \quad \text{---------------------------------(2)}$
From equation $(1)$ and equation $(2)$
$\Rightarrow BD = \sqrt{3}

Option 1: 10

Option 2: 8

Option 3: 6

Option 4: 12

Team Careers360 20th Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: 10


Solution : Given: 10 men can do a work in 25 days. After 12 days of work, 3 more men were engaged to finish the work.
Here, $M_1=10,M_2=10+3=13,D_1=25-12=13$
We know, $M_1D_1= M_2D_2$
⇒ 10 × 13 = 13 × D2
$\therefore$ D2 = 10 days

The percentage of money spent on miscellaneous is:

Option 1: $7\frac{2}{17}$%

Option 2: $17\frac{2}{17}$%

Option 3: $11\frac{1}{9}$%

Option 4: $9\frac{1}{11}$%

Team Careers360 17th Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: $11\frac{1}{9}$%


Solution : Total spending = (80 + 10 + 20 + 10 + 15) = Rs. 135 lakhs
Spending on miscellaneous products = Rs. 15 lakhs
Required percentage = $\frac{\text{Miscellaneous items expenditure}}{\text{Total expenditure}} \times 100=\frac{15}{135} \times 100 = \frac{100}{9}=11\frac{1}{9}$%
Hence, the correct answer is $11\frac{1}{9}$%.
