Question

The angle of elevation of the sun when the length of the shadow of a pole is $\sqrt{3}$ times the height of the pole is

• A. ${30}^0$
• B. ${45}^0$
• C. ${60}^0$
• D. ${75}^0$

Answer 1

The correct option is A ${30}^0$

$tan\angle MOP=\frac{MP}{MO}=\frac{1}{\sqrt{3}}=tan{30}^0$
$\therefore \angle MOP={30}^0$
