A pole of height 94 m is broken in such a way that its top part is not completely separated but falls to ground and make at an of 30° with the ground. Find the height at which pole is broken. |
31.33 m 23.45 m 43.45 m 48 m |
31.33 m |
AC = 94 m Let, BC = x A'B = 94 - x sin 30° = \(\frac{BC}{A'B}\) ⇒ \(\frac{1}{2}\) = \(\frac{x}{94 - x}\) ⇒ 94 - x = 2x ⇒ x = 31.33 m Therefore, post broke at the height of 31.33 m |
