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

tan 35 =\frac{AO}{t/2} , tan 45= \frac{BP}{t/2} // AO = \frac{t*tan35}{2},  BP=\frac{t*tan45}{2}

And there ratio is

\frac{AO}{BP}= \frac{tan 35}{tan 45}=\frac{0.7}{1}
