प्रश्न

The ratio of the length of a rod and its shadow is `1 : sqrt3`. The angle of elevation of the sum is 

पर्याय

  • 30°

  •  45°

  • 60°

  • 90°

MCQ

उत्तर

Let θ be angle of elevation of sun. 

Given that: angle of elevation is `60°`from tower of foot and distance`BC=100` meters.

Here, we have to find the height of tower.

So we use trigonometric ratios.

In a triangle `ABC` 

`⇒ tan C=( AB)/(BC)` 

`⇒ tan 60°= (AB)/(BC)` 

`⇒ sqrt 3=h/100`

`⇒=100sqrt3`

Hence correct option is `a`.
