From a point C on a level ground, the angle of elevation of the top of a tower is 30 degree. If the tower is 100 meter high, find the distance from point C to the foot of the tower.

Answer: Option E

Explanation:

Let boy is standing at C position and A is that position from where toy left eartg and B is the position of the toy after 2 minutes.

\begin{aligned}
\text{ Given that CA = 150 m } \\
\text{Angle is }\angle{ 60 ^{\circ} } \\
tan 60 ^{\circ} = \frac{BA}{CA} \\
BA = 150 \sqrt{3}
\end{aligned}
So distance travelled by toy is,
\begin{aligned}
150 \sqrt{3} \\
\text { Total time taken is = 2 min} \\
= \text {2 * 60 = 120 seconds } \\
Speed = \frac{Distance}{Time} \\
= \frac{150\sqrt{3}}{120} = 1.25\sqrt{3}\\
= \text {1.25 * 1.73 = 2.16 mtr/sec}
\end{aligned}

Answer: Option D

Explanation:

Please refer to the image. One of the AB, AD and CD must be given. So data is inadequate.

Answer: Option C

Explanation:

Let AB be the tower.
\begin{aligned}
then \angle{ACB}= 30^{\circ} \\
AB = 100&meter \\
\frac{AB}{AC} = tan&30^{\circ} \\
=>\frac{100}{AC} = \frac{1}{\sqrt{3}} \\
=> AC = \sqrt{3}*100 \\
=> AC = 1.73*100 \\
=> AC = 173 meter
\end{aligned}

Please always remember the value of square root 3 is 1.73, and value of square root 2 is 1.41.
This will be very helpful while solving height and distance questions and saving your time.

Answer: Option C

Explanation:

Let AB be the tower and C and D be the positions of the boat.
\begin{aligned}
then \angle{ACB}=45^{\circ}, \angle{ADB}=30^{\circ}, \\
AC = 60&m \\
Let& AB = h \\
=>\frac{AB}{AC} = tan&45^{\circ} = 1 \\
=> AB = AC = 60&m \\

and, \frac{AB}{AD} = tan&30^{\circ} = \frac{1}{\sqrt{3}} \\
=> AD = AB*\sqrt{3} = 60\sqrt{3}&m \\

=> CD = AD-AC = 60\sqrt{3}-60\\
=> CD = 60(\sqrt{3}-1) m \\
\text{We Know Speed = }\frac{Distance}{Time} \\
=> Speed = \left[\frac{60(\sqrt{3}-1)}{5} \right]m/sec
= 12*0.73&m/sec \\

\text{Please note answer we need in Km/Hr} \\
=> Speed = 12*0.73*\frac{18}{5} Km/Hr \\
=> Speed = 31.5 & Km/hr, \\
\text{Which is approx 32 Km/Hr}


\end{aligned}

Answer: Option A

Explanation:

Let AB be the tree and AC be its shadow, So as per question, shadow of a tree is \begin{aligned}\sqrt{3}\end{aligned} times the height of tree. Let h be the height of the tree, then
\begin{aligned}
\frac{AB}{AC} = tan\theta \\
=> \frac{h}{\sqrt{3}h} = tan\theta \\
=> tan\theta = \frac{1}{\sqrt{3}} \\
=> \theta = 30^{\circ}
\end{aligned}
