The upper part of a tree broken by the wind makes an angle of $30^\circ$ with the ground. The distance from the root to the point where the top of the tree touches the ground is $10 \, m$. What was the original height of the tree in meters?

An observer in a boat finds that the angle of elevation of the top of a tower standing on the top of a cliff is $60^\circ$ and that of the top of the cliff is $30^\circ$. If the height of the tower is $60 \ m$,then the height of the cliff is ... $m$.

$A$ vertical pole fixed to the horizontal ground is divided in the ratio $3:7$ by a mark on it,with the lower part shorter than the upper part. If the two parts subtend equal angles at a point on the ground $18 \ m$ away from the base of the pole,then the height of the pole (in $meters$) is:

$A$ vertical pole consists of two parts,the lower part being one third of the whole. At a point in the horizontal plane through the base of the pole and at a distance of $20 \, m$ from it,the upper part of the pole subtends an angle whose tangent is $\frac{1}{2}$. The possible heights of the pole are

Let a vertical tower $AB$ have its end $A$ on the level ground. Let $C$ be the mid-point of $AB$ and $P$ be a point on the ground such that $AP = 2AB$. If $\angle BPC = \beta$,then $\tan \beta$ is equal to:

The angle of elevation of an object from a point $P$ on the level ground is $\alpha$. Moving $d$ metres on the ground towards the object,the angle of elevation is found to be $\beta$. Then the height (in metres) of the object is
