In the diagram below PA represents an electricity post of height 9.6 m. BB and RC represents two storey buildings of heights 15.4 m and 33.4 m respectively.
The angle of depression of A from B is 5.50 While the angle of elevation of C from B is 30.50 and BC = 35m.
(a) Calculate, to the nearest metre, the distance AB
(b) By scale drawing find, (i) The distance AC in metres (ii) Angle BCA and hence determine the angle of depression of A from C Form 1 Mathematics
The figure below is drawn to scale. It represents a field in the shape of an equilateral triangle of side 80m
The owner wants to plant some flowers in the field. The flowers must be at most, 60m from A and nearer to B than to C. If no flower is to be more than 40m from BC, show by shading, the exact region where the flowers may be planted
