उत्तर
Suppose, AB is a mountain of height t + x.
\[\sin30° = \frac{x}{1000} \]
\[ \Rightarrow x = 1000 \times \left( \frac{1}{2} \right) = 500 m\]
\[\text{ and } \]
\[\tan30° = \frac{x}{y}\]
\[ \Rightarrow y = \frac{x}{\tan30°} = 500\sqrt{3}\]
\[\text{ In } ∆ ABC, \]
\[\tan45°= \frac{t + x}{y + z}\]
\[ \Rightarrow t + x = y + z . . . \left( 1 \right)\]
\[\text{ In } ∆ ADE, \]
\[\tan60° = \frac{t}{z}\]
\[ \Rightarrow t = \sqrt{3}z . . . \left( 2 \right)\]
\[\text{ From } \left( 1 \right) \text{ and } \left( 2 \right), \text{ we have } \]
\[\sqrt{3}z + x = y + z\]
\[ \Rightarrow z\left( \sqrt{3} - 1 \right) = 500\left( \sqrt{3} - 1 \right)\]
\[ \Rightarrow z = 500 m\]
\[ \therefore t = \sqrt{3}z = 500\sqrt{3}\]
Hence, height of the mountain =\[t + x = 500\sqrt{3} + 500 = 500\left( \sqrt{3} + 1 \right) m\]
