प्रश्न
If two circles having centers P and Q and radii 3 cm and 5 cm. touch each other externally, find the distance PQ.
उत्तर
If two circles touch externally, then the distance between their centres is sum of their radii.
∴ the distance between their centres = 5 + 3 = 8 cm .

From the top of building AB, a point C is observed on the ground whose angle of depression is 60° and which is at a distance of 40 m from the base of the building. Complete the following activity to find the height of building AB.
From figure, BC = `square`, ∠ACB = `square`
In ΔACB,
tan `square = square/(BC)`
⇒ `square = square/square`
⇒ `square = square`
Hence, the height of the building AB is `square`.
