The angle of elevation of the top of a tower of height 100 √3 metre from a point at a distance of 100 metre from the foot of the tower on a horizontal plane is
-
- 45°
- 60°
- 30°
-
22 1 ° 2
Correct Option: B
AB = Tower = 100 √3 metre
BC = 100 metre
From ∆ ABC,
tan θ = | BC |
⇒ tan θ = | = √3 | 100 |
⇒ tanθ = tan 60° ⇒ θ = 60°
