Tower Bridge is a Grade I listed combined bascule and suspension bridge in
London, built between 1886 and 1894, designed by Horace Jones and engineered by
John Wolfe Barry. The bridge is 800 fect (240 m) in length and consists of two
bridge towers connected at the upper level by two horizontal walkways, and a
central pair of bascules that can open to allow shipping.
In this bridge, two towers of equal heights are standing opposite each other on either
side of the road, which is 80 m wide. During summer holidays, Neeta visited the
tower bridge. She stood at some point on the road between these towers. From that
point between the towers on the road, the angles of elevation of the top of the towers
was 60° and 30° respectively.
IN
Find the distances of the point from the base of the towers where Neeta was
standing while measuring the height.
Neeta used some applications of trigonometry she learned in her class to find the
height of the towers without actually measuring them. What would be the height of
the towers she would have calculated?
OR
Find the distance between Neeta and top tower CD?
(iii) Find the distance between Neeta and top of tower AB?
