Due to heavy floods in a state, thousands were rendered homeless. 50 schools collectively offered to the state government to provide the place and the canvas for 1500 tents to be fixed by the governments and decided to share the whole expenditure equally. The lower part of each tent is cylindrical of base radius 2.8 cm and height 3.5 m, with conical upper part of same base radius but of height 2.1 m. If the canvas used to make the tents costs Rs. 120 per sq. m, find the amount shared by each school to set up the tents. What value is generated by the above problem? (Use π = 22/7)

The angle of elevation of the top Q of a vertical tower PQ from a point X on the ground is 60o. From a point Y, 40 m vertically above X, the angle of elevation of the top Q of the tower is 45o. Find the height of the tower PQ and the distance PX. Use square root of 3 space equals 1.73


Given the angle of elevation of the top Q of a vertical tower from the PQ from a point X on the ground is 60o.
From a point Y, 40 m vertically above X, the angle of elevation of the top Q of the tower is 45o.

MP space equals space XY space equals space 40 space straight m
therefore space QM equals straight h minus 40
In space right space angled space increment QMY comma
tan space 45 degree equals QM over MY equals 1 space equals fraction numerator straight h minus 40 over denominator PX end fraction space.... space left parenthesis MY equals PX right parenthesis
therefore PX space equals straight h minus 40 space space space space left parenthesis straight I right parenthesis
tan space 60 degree space equals QP over PX equals
space square root of 3 equals QP over PX
therefore space PX space equals fraction numerator straight h over denominator square root of 3 end fraction space space space space.. space left parenthesis II right parenthesis
From space left parenthesis straight l right parenthesis space and space left parenthesis ll right parenthesis space comma straight h minus 40 space equals fraction numerator straight h over denominator square root of 3 end fraction
therefore square root of 3 straight h end root minus 40 square root of 3 equals straight h
therefore square root of 3 straight h end root minus straight h space equals 40 square root of 3
therefore 1.73 straight h minus straight h space equals 40 left parenthesis 1.73 right parenthesis
straight h equals 94.79 straight m
Thus comma space PQ space is space 94.79 space straight m
