Question 49

From the top of a platform 5 m high, the angle of elevation of a tower was 30°. If the
tower was 45 m high, how far away from the tower was the platform positioned?

   In Triangle ADE , $$\tan30^\circ$$ = $$\frac{AE}{DE}$$

$$\Rightarrow$$ $$\frac{1}{\sqrt3}$$ = $$\frac{40}{DE}$$     
$$\Rightarrow$$ DE = $$40\sqrt3$$m
