Question 1

Two posts are 4 m apart. Both posts are on same side of a tree. If the angles of depressions of these posts when observed from the top of the tree are 45o and 60o respectively, then what is the height of the tree?

Question 2

A man on the top of a tower, standing on the sea-shore, finds that a boat coming towards him takes 10 minutes for the angle of depression to change from 30 ° to 60 °. How soon the boat reach the sea-shore?

Question 3

P and Q are two points on the ground on either side of a pole. The angles of elevation of the top of the pole as observed from P and Q are 60° and 30°, respectively and the distance between them is 84√3 m. What is the height (in in) of the pole?

Question 4

The angle of elevation of the top of a tree from a point on the ground which is 300 m away from the tree is 30 o. When the tree grew up, its angle of elevation of the top of it became 60o from the same point. How much did the tree grow?

Question 5

As observed from the top of a light house, 120√3 m above the sea level, the angle of depression of a ship sailing towards it changes from 30° to 60°. The distance travelled by the ship during the period of observation is:

Question 6

A ladder is resting against a wall. The angle between the foot of the ladder and wall is 600, and the foot of the ladder is 3.6 m away from the wall. The length of the ladder ( in m) is:

Question 7

The angles of elevation of the top of a tower from two points on the ground at distances 32 m and 18 m from its base and in the same straight line with it are complementary. The height (in m) of the tower is _________.

Question 8

A straight tree breaks due to storm and the broken part bends so that the top of the tree touches the ground making an angle of 30 ° with the ground. The distance from the foot of the tree to the point, where the top touches the ground is 10 m. Find the total height of the tree?

Question 9

The angle of depression of two cars situating at same side of a hill of height 96m are 30° and 60° respectively. Find the distance between the cars? (Use 3 = 1.73 and calculate up to nearest integer)

Question 10

A ladder leaning against a window of a house makes an angle of 60o with the ground. If the distance of the foot of the ladder from the wall is 4.2 m, then the height of the point, where the ladder touches the window from the ground is closest to:
