India is competitive manutacturing location due to the low cost of maapower and strong technical and enginering capabilities
coatributing to higher quality prodaction runs. The production af TV sets in a factory increases unifornly by afixod number
every year. It produced 16000 sets in 6th year and 22600 in 9th year.

Putting d = 2200 in equation ..(0)
16000 =x+5x (2200)

Two trees are standing on flat ground. The angle of elevation of the top of Both the trees from a point Xon the ground is 60®. If
the horizontal distmce betwen Xand the snaler tree is &m and the distance of the top of the two tres is 20 m.

(i) In ADCX

tan 60 =

DC =8/3 n
DX =/Dc+CXI

 = 16 m
Hence, distance between X and top of smaller tree is 16 m.
(ii) In ABAX
cos 60 =
