1
00:00:00,600 --> 00:00:07,920
Let's do this question the top of a broken tree touches just the ground at a distance of 12 meter from

2
00:00:07,920 --> 00:00:08,520
its base.

3
00:00:08,950 --> 00:00:14,820
If the tree is broken at a height of five meters from the ground, then the actual height of the tree

4
00:00:14,820 --> 00:00:17,180
is already owns the video.

5
00:00:17,400 --> 00:00:19,740
Give it a try and then let's do it together.

6
00:00:20,250 --> 00:00:20,760
All right.

7
00:00:20,760 --> 00:00:21,240
We're back.

8
00:00:21,270 --> 00:00:23,390
I hope you've given it a try over here.

9
00:00:23,400 --> 00:00:26,520
Let's draw the diagram of this Work-Based based problem.

10
00:00:28,300 --> 00:00:34,810
It's mentioned that the tree is broken at five meters from the ground, so this length over here is

11
00:00:34,810 --> 00:00:39,510
five meter and it touches the ground at a distance of 12 meters from the base.

12
00:00:39,760 --> 00:00:40,720
But this is the base.

13
00:00:41,020 --> 00:00:42,950
So this is very touching the ground.

14
00:00:42,970 --> 00:00:45,130
So this distance over here is 12 meters.

15
00:00:45,520 --> 00:00:48,490
Now, this is a right angle triangle, right?

16
00:00:48,490 --> 00:00:54,640
Because this angle over here is a 90 degree angle because trees make a 90 degree angle with the ground.

17
00:00:54,910 --> 00:00:55,360
All right.

18
00:00:55,540 --> 00:00:57,370
So let's take this side over here.

19
00:00:57,370 --> 00:01:03,540
As X as per Pythagoras's theorem, we know that X Square is equal to five square plus 12 square.

20
00:01:03,730 --> 00:01:08,680
That's twenty five plus one 144, which is equal to one sixty nine.

21
00:01:08,860 --> 00:01:13,720
Therefore, X is equal to square root of 169, which is equal to thirteen.

22
00:01:14,080 --> 00:01:14,950
Right now.

23
00:01:14,960 --> 00:01:18,900
We need to find the height, the actual height of the tree.

24
00:01:18,910 --> 00:01:19,240
Right.

25
00:01:19,360 --> 00:01:25,720
You might be tempted to immediately option B as the answer, but we have not yet arrived at the answer

26
00:01:25,960 --> 00:01:29,710
that actual height is equal to five plus 13.

27
00:01:29,710 --> 00:01:30,070
Right.

28
00:01:30,220 --> 00:01:31,770
Which gives you 18 metre.

29
00:01:31,780 --> 00:01:33,430
That's the initial height of the tree.

30
00:01:33,700 --> 00:01:38,110
And your correct answer is option C, that is 18 metre.
