Q.

ABC is an equilateral triangle on the horizontal
ground with length of each side equal to a.
Statement-1: If a tower standing at the centre O of the triangle
makes an angle α at each corner such that 

α=tan19, then height of the tower is 33

Statement-2: If a tower of height 2a standing at one corner
of the triangle makes an angle α at any other corner, then 

a=tan12.

Detailed Solution

Since ABC is an equilateral triangle.

OA=OB=OC=a/3.In statement-1 if the height of the

tower is hhcotα=a/3

 h=a3×9=33a

 statement-1 is True.

In statement-2, 2acotα=a

tanα=2α=tan12

so the statement-2 is True but does not lead to statement-1.
