Question

A statue of height 4 m stands on a tower of height 10 m . The angle subtended by the statue at the eyes of an observer of height 2 m , standing at a distance of 6 m from base of the tower is, t a n - 1 2 11, t a n - 1 4 3, t a n - 1 2, t a n - 1 7 13

From the figure tan ⁡ α = 2 , tan ⁡ β = 4 3 tan ⁡ θ = 2 - 4 3 1 + 8 3 = 2 11 Hence, angle subtended by the statue at the eyes of the observer is θ = tan - 1 2 11
