CASE STUDY- 1
13. Mohan is watching the top of the lighthouse from the top of the building, he founds angle of
elevation is 30° and then after he is watching the bottom of the lighthouse, he founds angle of
depression is 60°. The height of the building is 60m.
Based on this given information, answer the following questions.
(i) Find the difference between the heights of the lighthouse and the building.
(ii) Find the distance between the lighthouse and the building.

CASE STUDY- 2
14. Pollution – A Major Problem: One of the major serious problems that the world is facing today
is the environmental pollution. Common types of pollution include light, noise, water and air
pollution.
In a school, students thoughts of planting trees in and around the school to reduce noise pollution
and air pollution.
Condition I: It was decided that the number of trees that each section of each class will plant be
the same as the class in which they are studying, e.g. a section of class I will plant 1 tree, a section
of class II will plant 2 trees and so on a section of class XII will plant 12 trees.
Condition II: It was decided that the number of trees that each section of each class will plant be
the double of the class in which they are studying, e.g. a section of class I will plant 2 trees, a
section of class II will plant 4 trees and so on a section of class XII will plant 24 trees.
(i) Refer to Condition I - If there are two sections of each class, how many trees will be planted by
the students?
(ii) Refer to Condition II - If there are three sections of each class, how many trees will be planted
by the students?
