Raina is 1.5 m tall. At an instant, his shadow is 1.8 m long. At the same instant, the shadow of a pole is 9 m long. How tall is the pole?
A tower $PQ$ stands on a horizontal ground with base $Q$ on the ground The point $R$ divides the tower in two parts such that $QR =15 \,m$ If from a point $A$ on the ground the angle of elevation of $R$ is $60^{\circ}$ and the part $PR$ of the tower subtends an angle of $15^{\circ}$ at $A$, then the height of the tower is :
Angle of depression from tower top to A is 30°. After 20 seconds at B, it is 45°. Time taken from B to reach the base is :
Two vertical poles are 150 m apart and the height of one is three times that of the other. If from the middle point of the line joining their feet, an observer finds the angles of elevation of their tops to be complementary, then the height of the shorter pole (in meters) is :
A pole stands vertically inside a triangular park ABC. Let the angle of elevation of the top of the pole from each corner of the park be π/3. If the radius of the circumcircle of ΔABC is 2, then the height of the pole is equal to :
A spherical gas balloon of radius 16 meter subtends an angle $60^{\circ}$ at the eye of the observer A while the angle of elevation of its center from the eye of A is $75^{\circ}$. Then the height (in meter) of the top most point of the balloon from the level of the observer's eye is :
The angle of elevation of a jet plane from a point A on the ground is 60°. After 20 s at speed 432 km/h, the angle changes to 30°. If the jet plane is at constant height, then its height is :
From the top of a tower \(h\) meter high, the angle of depression of two objects, which lie on either side of it are \( \alpha \) and \( \beta \). The distance between the two objects is :
From an airplane flying, vertically above a horizontal road, the angles of depression of two consecutive stones on the same side of the airplane are observed to be 30° and 60° respectively. The height at which the airplane is flying in km is :
