Two vertical poles of equal heights are $120 \, m$ apart. On the line joining their bottoms,$A$ and $B$ are two points. The angle of elevation of the top of one pole from $A$ is $45^\circ$ and that of the other pole from $B$ is also $45^\circ$. If $AB = 30 \, m$,then the height of each pole is.....$m$.

$A$ person observes the top of a tower from a point $A$ on the ground. The angle of elevation of the tower from this point is $60^{\circ}$. He moves $60 \ m$ in the direction perpendicular to the line joining $A$ and the base of the tower to reach point $C$. The angle of elevation of the tower from point $C$ is $45^{\circ}$. Then, the height of the tower (in metres) is

The angle of elevation of the top of a hill from a point on the horizontal plane passing through the foot of the hill is found to be $45^{\circ}$. After walking a distance of $80 \ m$ towards the top,up a slope inclined at an angle of $30^{\circ}$ to the horizontal plane,the angle of elevation of the top of the hill becomes $75^{\circ}$. Then the height of the hill (in meters) is

$A$ vertical pole fixed to the horizontal ground is divided in the ratio $3:7$ by a mark on it,with the lower part shorter than the upper part. If the two parts subtend equal angles at a point on the ground $18 \ m$ away from the base of the pole,then the height of the pole (in $meters$) is:

The angles of elevation of the top of a tower $A$ from the top $B$ and bottom $D$ of a building of height $a$ are $30^\circ$ and $45^\circ$ respectively. If the tower and the building stand at the same level,then the height of the tower is
