In the diagram, |QR| = 10cm, PR⊥QS, angle PSR = 30° and angle PQR = 45°. Calculate in meters |QS|
\(10(1+\sqrt{3})\)
\(20\sqrt{3}\)
\(10\sqrt{3}\)
\((10+\sqrt{3})\)
Correct answer is A
In \(\Delta\) PQR,
\(\tan 45 = \frac{PR}{10} \implies PR = 10 \tan 45\)
= 10m
In \(\Delta\) PRS,
\(\tan 30 = \frac{10}{RS} \implies RS = \frac{10}{\tan 30}\)
= \(\frac{10}\{\frac{1}{\sqrt{3}}\)
= \(10\sqrt{3}\)
PS = \(10 + 10\sqrt{3}\)
= \(10(1 + \sqrt{3}) cm\)
