A person standing on the bank of a river finds that the angle of elevation of the top of a tower on the opposite bank is 45°. Then which of the following statements is correct?
tan angle = perpendicular/base
So, in right angled triangle,
tan 45 = height of tower/breadth of river
Since tan 45 = 1
So, height of tower = breadth of river
Hence B
