Zaheer, a boy of height 1.5m was watching the entire programme. Initially he observed the top of the flag pole at an angle of el

evation 300 . When he moved 10 m towards the flag post the angle of elevation of the top of the flag pole increased to 450. What is the height of the flag pole?

Answer:

15.2 m

Step-by-step explanation:

You need to draw a figure. Start by drawing a horizontal segment approximately 10 cm long; that is the ground. Label the left end point A and the right endpoint B. On the right endpoint, B, go up a short 1 cm vertically. That is 1.5 m, the height of Zaheer. Label that point C. Now from that point draw a horizontal line that ends up above point A. Label that point D. Now go back to point C. Draw a segment up to the left at a 30 deg angle with CD. End the segment vertically above point D. Label that point E. That is the top of the flagpole. Draw a vertical segment down from point E through point D ending at point A. Segment AE is the flagpole. Go back to point C. Move 3 cm to the left on segment CD, and draw a point there and label it F. That is where Zaheer moved to. Now connect point F to point E. That is a 45-deg elevation to point E, the top of the flagpole.

m<EFD = 45 deg

m<EFC = 135 deg

m<FEC = 15 deg

m<ECD = 30 deg

We now use the law of sines to find EC

(sin 15)/10 = (sin 135)/EC

EC = 27.32

Because of the 30-60-90 triangle, ED = EC/2

ED = 13.66

Now we add the height of Zaheer to find AE.

13.66 + 1.5 = 15.16

Answer: 15.2 m

1) Sally sprints 300 yards in a minute. Quadra runs 20% further than Sally in the same time.
Free_Kalibri [48]
1) answer = 360
explanation =
-> 10% of 300 = 300*10
-> 10% of 300 = 30
-> 20% = 10% x 2
-> 20% = 30 x 2
-> 20% = 60
-> 300 yards ( distance they ran ) + 60 yards ( how much more distance Quadra ran ) = 360 yards
2) answer = Newton spends 10 minutes or 1/6 hours reading
explanation =
-> 25% = 1/4
-> 40*4= 10
-> 1 hrs = 60 min
-> 10 min x 6 = 60 min
-> 1/6 hrs = 10 min
3) answer = 30 fish
explanation =
-> 40% = 12
-> 10% = 3
-> 40*4=10 and 12*4=3
-> 10% + 40% = 50% so 12 + 3 = 15
-> 50% = 15 and 100% = 15 x 2
-> 100% = 30
4) answer = 30
explanation =
-> 1/4 is equal to 25 %
-> add up all the prrcentages ( 25% + 10% + 15% = 50% )
-> she have 50% of tej chocolates Which were in the tin she bought away and kept 15 chocolates to herself
-> 50% = 1/2
-> 50% x 2 = 100%
-> 15 x 2 = 30
