Option 1: 32.9 m

Option 2: 33.4 m

Option 3: 36.9 m

Option 4: 24.8 m

Team Careers360 20th Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: 32.9 m


Solution :
Given, AB = 45 m
In $\triangle$ABC
$\tan$ 45° = $\frac{\text{AB}}{\text{BC}}$
⇒ 1 = $\frac{45}{\text{BC}}$
⇒ BC = 45 m
In $\triangle$ABD
$\tan 30° = \frac{\text{AB}}{\text{BD}}$
⇒ $\frac{1}{\sqrt{3}} = \frac{45}{\text{BD}}$
⇒ BD = $45\sqrt{3}$
Also, BD = CD + BC
⇒ $45\sqrt{3}$ = CD

Question : If $\tan (A+B)=\sqrt{3}$ and $\tan (A-B)=\frac{1}{\sqrt{3}}; 0°<(A+B)<90°; A > B$, then the values of $A$ and $B$ are respectively:

Option 1: 45° and 15°

Option 2: 15° and 45°

Option 3: 30° and 30°

Option 4: 60° and 30°

Team Careers360 13th Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: 45° and 15°


Solution : Given: $\tan (A+B)=\sqrt{3}$ and $\tan (A-B)=\frac{1}{\sqrt{3}}$
$\tan (A+B)=\sqrt{3}=\tan60°$
⇒ $A+B=60°$ .........................(1)
Also, $\tan (A-B)=\frac{1}{\sqrt{3}}=\tan30°$
⇒ $A-B=30°$ ............................(2)
Solving equations (1) and (2) we get,
$A=45°$ and $B=15°$
Hence, the correct answer is 45° and 15°.
