Two men on either side of a pole of 30 m high observe its top at angles of elevation α\alpha and β\beta respectively. The distance between the two men is 40340\sqrt{3} m and the distance between the first man at A and the pole is 30330\sqrt{3} m.

Based on the above information, answer the question:

∠ABC\angle ABC is equal to:

Solution

✅ Correct Option: 3

In triangle ABC: ∠A=α=π/6\angle A = \alpha = \pi/6, ∠C=β=π/3\angle C = \beta = \pi/3. Sum of angles is π\pi, so ∠ABC=π−π/6−π/3=π/2\angle ABC = \pi - \pi/6 - \pi/3 = \pi/2.
