  1. Question 1

    Q1. The angle of elevation of the top of a tower from a point on the ground is 60°. If the height of the tower is 100√3 m, find the distance of the point from the foot of the tower.

    • A) 100 m
    • B) 150 m
    • C) 200 m
    • D) 300 m

    Answer: 100 m

    Explanation: tan 60° = height / distance, so distance = height / tan 60° = 100 m.
