  • A
    $\frac{10}{\sqrt{3}} \; m$
  • B
    $\frac{20}{\sqrt{3}} \; m$
  • C
    $10 \sqrt{3} \; m$
  • D

$A$ man standing at a point $P$ (or $L$ in the diagram) is watching the top of a tower $N$,which makes an angle of elevation of $30^{\circ}$ with the man's eye. The man walks some distance towards the tower to point $Q$ to watch its top and the angle of elevation becomes $60^{\circ}$. What is the distance (in units) between the base of the tower $M$ and the point $P$ (or $L$)?

The distance between two pillars is $120 \text{ m}$. The height of one pillar is thrice the other. The angles of elevation of their tops from the midpoint of the line connecting their feet are complementary to each other. The height (in $\text{m}$) of the taller pillar is (Use: $\sqrt{3} = 1.732$)
