JEE Main 2019 (Online) 10th April Morning Slot Mathematics - Height and Distance Question 25 English Explanation Δ\Delta APM

hAM=132{h \over {AM}} = {1 \over {3\sqrt 2 }}

Δ\Delta BPM

hBM=17{h \over {BM}} = {1 \over {\sqrt 7 }}

Δ\Delta ABM

AM2 + MB2 = (100)2

' ⇒\Rightarrow 18h2 + 7h2 = 100 × 100

⇒\Rightarrow h2 = 4 × 100

⇒\Rightarrow h = 20
