A man is watching from the top of a tower a boat speeding away from the tower. The boat makes an angle of depression of 450 with the man’s eye when at a distance of 60 metres from the tower. After 5 seconds, the angle of depression becomes 300. What is the approximate speed of the boat, assuming that it is running in still water?
A man standing at a point P is watching the top of a tower, which makes an angle of elevation of 30� with the man’s eye. The man walks some distance towards the tower to watch its top and the angle of the elevation becomes 60�. What is the distance between the base of the tower and the point P?

Standing at one corner of a square piece of land, a boy looks in the diagonally opposite direction and sees an object that looks like a scare crow. At the moment his angle of elevation formed is 60°. He starts walking back home in a straight line and after 80 ft realizes that the angle of elevation of the object now is only 30°. Find the area of the land he was standing on
A man is watching from the top of a tower, a boat speeding away from the tower. The angle of depression from the top of the tower to the boat is 600 when the boat is 80m from the tower. After 10 seconds, the angle of depression becomes 300. What is the speed of the boat? (Assume that the boat is running in still water).
