उत्तर
PQ = `sqrt((6 - 0)^2 + (2 + 4)^2) = 6sqrt(2)"units"`
QR = `sqrt((6 -3)^2 + (2 - 5)^2) = 3sqrt(2)"units"`
RS = `sqrt((3 +3)^2 + (5 + 1)^2) = 6sqrt(2)"units"`
PS = `sqrt((-3 - 0)^2 + (-1 + 4)^2) = 3sqrt(2)"units"`
PR = `sqrt((3 - 0)^2 + (5 + 4)^2) = 3sqrt(10)"units"`
QS = `sqrt((6 +3)^2 + (2 + 1)^2) = 3sqrt(10)"units"`
∵ PQ = RS and QR = PS,
Also PR = QS
∴ PQRS is a rectangle.

- Make a labelled figure on the basis of the given information and calculate the distance of the boat from the foot of the observation tower.
- After 10 minutes, the guard observed that the boat was approaching the tower and its distance from tower is reduced by 240(`sqrt(3)` - 1) m. He immediately raised the alarm. What was the new angle of depression of the boat from the top of the observation tower?
