Answer : 3. "66.6 mts"
Explanation :

Answer: C) 66.6 mts Explanation: From above diagramAC represents the hill and DE represents the tower Given that AC = 100 m angleXAD = angleADB = 30° (∵ AX || BD ) angleXAE = angleAEC = 60° (∵ AX || CE) Let DE = h Then, BC = DE = h, AB = (100-h) (∵ AC=100 and BC = h), BD = CE tan 60°=AC/CE => √3 = 100/CE =>CE = 100/√3 ----- (1) tan 30° = AB/BD => 1/√3 = 100−h/BD => BD = 100−h(√3)∵ BD = CE and Substitute the value of CE from equation 1 100/√3 = 100−h(√3) => h = 66.66 mts The height of the tower = 66.66 mts.
