Question

In the given figure, the angle of elevation of point A from point C is :

Two motorboats A and B are waiting at the opposite banks of a river in order to reach the opposite side. From a point P on the bridge, 20 m above the river, the angles of depression of the boats are 30° and 45° respectively, as shown in the figure given below. Both the boats leave at the same time at the speed of 10 m/s and 5 m/s, respectively

The angle of elevation of the top of a tower, 300 m high, from a point on the ground is observed as 30°. At an instant a hot air balloon passes vertically above the tower and at that instant its angle of elevation from same point on the ground is 60°. Find height of the balloon from the ground and distance of tower from point of observation. (Use √3 = 1.73)

Rahim and Nadeem are two friends whose plots are adjacent to each other. Rahim's son made a drawing of the plots with necessary details. It is decided that Rahim will fence the triangular plot ABC and Nadeem will fence along the sides AF, FE and BE. Observe the diagram carefully and answer the following questions : (Use √2 = 1.41 and √3 = 1.73)
