Two vertical poles are on either side of a road. A 30 m long ladder is placed between the two poles. When the ladder rests against one pole, it makes angle 32°24′ with the pole and when it is turned to rest against another pole, it makes angle 32°24′ with the road. Calculate the width of the road.

उत्तर

Let AB the ladder and  ∠ABP = 32°24 .

PQ = PB + BQ = ?

In ΔABP = sin 32°24 = `(PB)/(AB)`

PB = 30 × 0.56

PB = 16.08 m

In ΔCBQ 

cos 32°24 = `(BQ)/(BC)`

BQ = 30 × 0.844

= 25.32

PQ = 16.08 + 25.32

`=>` PQ = 41.4 m
