The angles of elevation froma point X to the top of flagpoles A and B are 35* and 45* respectively. If X lies in the middle of t
he flagpoles, find the ratio of the heights of the two flagpoles. Give your answer as a decimal, correct to 1 decimal place.
1 answer:
Let AB = t. And since X lies in the middle, so AX=BX = t/2 .
Let the height of the smaller flagpole is AO and of larger flagpole is BP .
Using tangent ratio rule in each triangle, we will get

And there ratio is

Step-by-step explanation:
By segment addition rule AB + BC = AC
3x + 2x - 7 = 2x + 35
3x = 42
x = 1 4
CHECK
3(14) = 42
2(14)-7= 21
