In one of the post we learnt values of sin, cos, tan, cot, cosec and sec for 0, 30, 45, 60 and 90 degrees. You can review the post here https://mathinstructor.net/2012/08/values-of-trigonometric-ratios-for-0-30-45-60-and-90-degrees/
Applications of Trigonometry Heights and Distances Chapter 9 Exercise 9.1 Question 16
16. The angles of elevation of the top of a tower from two points at a distance of 4 m and 9 m from the base of the tower and in the same straight line with it are complimentary. Prove that the height of the tower is 6 m.
Applications of Trigonometry Heights and Distances Chapter 9 Exercise 9.1 Question 15
15. A straight highway leads to the foot of a tower. A man standing at the top of the tower observes a car at an angle of depression of 30
, which is approaching the foot of the tower with a uniform speed. Six seconds later, the angle of depression of the car is found to be 60
. Find the time taken by the car to reach the foot of the tower from this point.

14. A 1.2 m tall girl spots a balloon moving with the wind in a horizontal line at a height of 88.2 m from the ground. The angle of elevation of the balloon from the eyes of the girl at any instant is 60
. After some time, the angle of elevation reduces to 30
. Find the distance traveled by the balloon during the travel.
