The angle of elevation of the top of a tower from a point on the ground is 45°. If the distance from the point to the foot of the tower is 30 m, find the height of the tower.
Q1. The angle of elevation of the top of a tower from a point on the ground is 45°. If the distance from the point to the foot of the tower is 30 m, find the height of the tower.
Answer: 30 m
Explanation: Using tan(45°) = height / 30, we get height = 30 m since tan(45°) = 1.
