The angles of depression of the top and bottom of an 8m tall building from the top … respectively. find the height of the…
Answers:
Let AB and CD be the multi-storeyed building and the building respectively.
Let the height of the multi-storeyed building= h m and
the distance between the two buildings = x m.
AE = CD = 8 m [Given]
BE = AB – AE = (h – 8) m
and
AC = DE = x m [Given]
Also,
∠FBD = ∠BDE = 30° (Corresponding angles)
∠FBC = ∠BCA = 45° (Corresponding angles)
Now,
In Δ ACB,
In Δ BDE,
From (i) and (ii), we get,
Distance between the two building
