Question

B.

The angle of depression of the bottom of a pole of height 20m when observed from the top of
a tower is found to be 60° and the angle of depression of the bottom of the tower from the top
of the pole is 22°. Find the height of the tower and the distance between the pole and the tower.
(tan 22° = 0.4)

Answer 1

see below

Explanation:

tan22 = 20/d

d = 20 / tan 22 = 49.5 m

tan60 = h/d

d tan 60 = h = 49.5 tan60 = 85.7 m
