Rishu is riding in a hot air balloon. After reaching a point P, he spots a car parked at Bon the ground at an angle of depression of `30^@`. The balloon rises further by 50 metres and now he spots the same car at an angle of depression of `45^(@)` and a lorry parked at B' at an angle of depression of `30^@`. (Use `sqrt3` = 1.73)

The measurement of Rishu facing vertically is the height. Distance is defined as the measurement of car/lorry from a point in a horizontal direction. If an imaginary line is drawn from the observation point to the top edge of the car/lorry, a triangle is formed by the vertical, horizontal and imaginary line.

The height of the balloon at point P' and distance AB are related as:

A

h = x+50

B

x = h+50

C

h = 50-x

D

x= 50h

Rishu is riding in a hot air balloon. After reaching a point P, he spots a car parked at Bon the ground at an angle of depression of 30^@ . The balloon rises further by 50 metres and now he spots the same car at an angle of depression of 45o and a lorry parked at B' at an angle of depression of 30^@ . (Use sqrt3 = 1.73) The measurement of Rishu facing vertically is the height. Distance is defined as the measurement of car/lorry from a point in a horizontal direction. If an imaginary line is drawn from the observation point to the top edge of the car/lorry, a triangle is formed by the vertical, horizontal and imaginary line. If the height of the balloon at point P is 'h' m and distance AB is 'x' m, then 'x' and 'h' are related as:
