Question
A man wants to distinguish between two pillars located at a distance of $11 \mathrm{~km}$. What should be the minimum distance between pillars?(a) $3.2 \mathrm{~m}$(b) $1.2 \mathrm{~m}$(c) $1.1 \mathrm{~m}$(d) $1.8 \mathrm{~m}$
Step 1
We convert this to radians as follows: \[\theta = 1' = \frac{1}{60} = \frac{\pi}{60 \times 180} \text{ radians}\] Show more…

A normal person wants to see two pillars at a distant $11 \mathrm{~km}$ away separately. The distance between two pillars should be approximately (A) $1 \mathrm{~m}$ (B) $3.2 \mathrm{~m}$ (C) $0.5 \mathrm{~m}$ (D) $1.6 \mathrm{~m}$
Two poles of heights $6 \mathrm{~m}$ and $11 \mathrm{~m}$ stand on a plane ground. If the distance between the feet of the poles is $12 \mathrm{~m}$, find the distance between their tops.
