Question 126

A and B are standing on the same side of a wall and observe that the angles of elevation to the top of the wall are $$45^\circ$$ and $$60^\circ$$ respectively. If the height of the wall is 50 M. the distance between A and B is: (Use $$\sqrt3=1.73$$ and $$\sqrt2=1.41$$)

Solution

So, $$50/(distance A)=tan45°=1$$

or, distance of $$A=50 m.$$

$$50/(distance of B)=tan60°=√3$$

or,distance of B $$=50/√3=28.86m.$$

So,distance between A and B 

$$=50-28.86=21.14.$$

So, Option B is correct.
