Answer» The ratio of the length of rod and its shadow = 1: √3 Let the angle of elevation of sun be θ tan θ = \(\frac{P}{B}\) (P = perpendicular, B = base) Here tan θ = 1: √3 = \(\frac{1}{\sqrt3}\) tan θ = \(\frac{\sqrt3}{3}\) (by rationalizing the denominator) θ = 30° (∵ tan 30° = (\(\frac{\sqrt3}{3}\)) |
