Q70.A pole stands vertically inside a triangular park ABC . Let the angle of elevation of the top of the pole from each corner of the park be π . If the radius of the circumcircle of ΔABC is 2 , then the height of the pole is 3 equal to : (1) 2√3 (2) 2√3 3 (3) √3 (4) 1 √3

What This Question Tests

This question combines trigonometry (heights and distances) with properties of triangles (circumcircle) to find the height of a pole given angles of elevation and the circumradius of the park.

Concepts Tested

Angles of elevationCircumradius of a triangleProperties of triangle (sine rule)

Formulas Used

R = a/(2sinA) = b/(2sinB) = c/(2sinC)

tan(θ) = opposite/adjacent
