2)lt is desired to sight from Hill A(elev = 3025.62 m) to Hill B(elev = 3048.91 m)
7 km away.Hill C(elev = 3039.76 m),3.5 km away,obstructs the line of sight.
a)lf towers of identical heights are to be constructed at Hill A and Hill B so that
the line of sight will clear the ground at Hill C by 3.0m,the towers should be
each be
meters high.
b)lf no tower is to be constructed at Hill B,the height of the tower to be constructed
on the Hill A so that the line of sight will clear the ground at Hill C by 3.0m
shoul be
meters.
