What Will be the height (AO) of the triangle if ∠ ABO given is changed from 45∘ to 60∘?
√6
When ∠ ABO is changed to 60∘, we get the above figure.
∴ △ AOB is a 30-60-90 triangle.
⇒ the sides are in the ratio 1 : √3 : 2
Let BO = x , AO = √3x and AB = 2x
Given: AB = 2√2
⇒ 2√2 = 2x
⇒ x = √2
∴ AO = √3 x = √3×√2 = √6
