Solution

The correct option is D
$15 (\sqrt{3} + 1)$

Let AC = x m

$Δ A C D$ is isosceles

$∴$ DC = AC = x

In $Δ A B C, t a n 30 = \frac{x}{30 + x}$

$\frac{1}{\sqrt{3}} = \frac{x}{30 + x}$

$30 + x = x \sqrt{3}$

$30 = x \sqrt{3} - x$

$30 = x (\sqrt{3} - 1)$

$x = \frac{30}{\sqrt{3} - 1}$

$= \frac{30}{\sqrt{3} - 1} \times \frac{\sqrt{3} + 1}{\sqrt{3} + 1}$

$= \frac{30 (\sqrt{3} + 1)}{2}$

$= 15 (\sqrt{3} + 1) m$
