Question : A man standing on the bank of a river observes that the angle of elevation of the top of a tree just on the opposite bank is $60°$. But the angle of elevation is $30°$ from a point which is at a distance $20\sqrt{3}$ ft away from the bank. Then the height of the tree is:

Option 1: 60 ft

Option 2: 45 ft

Option 3: 30 ft

Option 4: 15 ft

Team Careers360 24th Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: 30 ft


Solution :

Let $h$ be the height of the tree and $x$ be the breadth of the river.
From the above figure we get,
$\tan60°=\frac{h}{x}$
⇒ $\sqrt{3}=\frac{h}{x}$
⇒ $x=\frac{h}{\sqrt{3}}$----------(equation 1)
Also, $\tan30°=\frac{h}{x+20\sqrt{3}}$ 
⇒ $\frac{1}{\sqrt{3}}=\frac{h}{x+20\sqrt{3}}$
⇒ $x=h\sqrt{3}–20\sqrt{3}$ ---------(equation 2)
Now equalising the values of $x$ from both
