A man of height 1.5 m is standing in front of a tower of height 81.5 m. At what angle should he observe the top of the tower from the distance of 80 m?​

Respuesta :

The angle at which the man should observe is 45 degrees.

To solve the question :

Given :

height of man = 1.5m

height of tower = 81.5 m

distance between tower and man = 80 m

Since, ABCD is a rectangle, AD = BC = 80m

Similarly, AB = CD = 1.5m

EC = ED + CD

81.5 = ED + 1.5

ED = 80m

Now, in order to find the angle EAD, we use trigonometric functions,

tan ∅ = perpendicular / base = ED / AD

tan ∅ = 80 /80 = 1

∅ = [tex]tan^{-1} (1)[/tex]

∅ = 45°.

Therefore, The angle at which the man should observe is 45 °.
