A ladder leaning against a vertical wall, makes an angle of 600 with the ground. The foot of the ladder is 3.5 m away from the wall. Find the length of the ladder.

Solution:



Let AC be the length of the ladder,

AB be the distance between the foot of the ladder and the base of the wall.

Thus, AB = 3.5 m  (Given)

In right angled triangle, ABC,

cos 600 =  AB/AC

1/2 = 3.5/AC

AC = 3.5 × 2

AC = 7 m.


 The length of the ladder is 7m.

A kite is flying with a string of length 200 m. If the thread makes an angle of 300 with the ground, find the distance of the kite from the ground level. (Here, assume the string is along a straight line)

Solution: 



Let h be the height of the kite from the ground level.

In, ∆ ABC, AC be the length of the string,

Given that CAB = 300  and AC = 200 m.

In the right angled triangle, ∆ CAB

½ = h/200

h = 200/2

h = 100 m.


Hence the height of the kite from the ground level is 100 m.

IMPORTANT THEOREMS GEOMETRY : SIMILARITY AND CIRCLE CHAPTER

If a line parallel to one side of a triangle intersects the other two sides in two distinct points, then the other two sides are divided in the same ratio by it.


The ratio of areas of two similar triangles is equal to the square of the ratio of their corresponding sides.


The opposite angles of a cyclic quadrilateral are supplementary.


If a secant and a tangent of a circle intersect in a point outside the circle then the area of the rectangle formed by the two line segments corresponding to the secant is equal to the area of the square formed by line segment corresponding the tangent.


The lengths of the two tangents segments to a circle drawn from an external point are equal.


If the angles of a triangle are 45 degree, 45 degree, and 90 degree, then each of the perpendicular sides is (1/√2 ) times the hypotenuse.
