Answer any One question : From a quay of a river, 600 metres wide, two boats start in two different directions to reach the opposite side of the river. The first boat moves making an angle of 30^@ with this bank and the second moves making an angle 90^@ with direction of the first boat. What will be the distance between the two boats when both of them reach the other side?
