Question

If the height and length of the shadow of a man are the same, then find the angle of elevation of the Sun.

Answer 1

$\therefore$ Height$=$shadow

Let x is light and x is shadow

then $\tan \theta =\frac{P}{B}$

$=\frac{x}{x}$

$\tan \theta =1$

$\tan 1={45}^o$

So angle of elevation is ${45}^o$.
