A man standing on the sea shore observes that the angle of elevation of a ship is 30°. If the height of the man's eye level above the sea is 10 m, find the distance of the ship from the man.
Q1. A man standing on the sea shore observes that the angle of elevation of a ship is 30°. If the height of the man's eye level above the sea is 10 m, find the distance of the ship from the man.
Answer: 10√3 m
Explanation: Using tan(30°) = 10 / distance, we get distance = 10√3 m.
