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}
