विकल्प
30 m
40 m
20 m
10 m
MCQ
उत्तर
20 m
Explanation:
The given situation can be represented by figure above
`therefore "tan"60^circ = "DC"/"BC" => "BC" = "DC"/("tan" 60^circ) = 60/sqrt3 = 20sqrt 3 "m"`
`"tan" 30^circ = "AB"/"BC"`
`=> "AB" = "BC" xx "tan" 30^circ = 20 sqrt3 xx (1/(sqrt3 "m")) = 20 "m"`
Thus, height of building is 20 m.
