engineering mathematics MCQ #86

  1. Question 1

    Q1. From a point on the ground, the angle of elevation to the top of a tower is 30°. If the tower is 50m high, find the distance from point to tower base.

    • A) 50√3 m
    • B) 100 m
    • C) 50 m
    • D) 25√3 m

    Answer: 50√3 m

    Explanation: tan(30°) = 50 / distance, so distance = 50√3 m.
