Point A is h m above the ground level BC. DC represents the tower. The angle of elevation of the top of the tower from point A is α and the and the angle of depression of the base of the tower from point A is β. Prove that the height of the tower is h(tan α + tan β) / tan β
Kindly follow the link given below to find the answer to your query.
In the end you get
Height = h (1 + tan α cot β)
⇒ Height = h (1 + tan α/ tan β)
⇒ Height = h (tan β + tan α)/ tan β
Hence proved!
