CBSE Class 10 Answered
if the angle of elevation of a cloud from a point h meters above a lake is alpha and the angle of depression of its reflection in the lake is beta, prove that the height of the cloud is
h(tan beta + tan alpha)/(tan beta - tan alpha)

Expert Answer
Figure shows the angle of elevation of cloud and angle of depression of its image in the Lake as observed from a height h.
Let H be the height of cloud from the observation level.
from figure we have, tanα = H/L and tanβ = (2h+H)/L
By eliminating L from the above relations, we have H×cotα = (2h+H)cotβ or H×(cotα - cotβ) = 2h×cotβ
Cloud Height =
