Since A, B and C are the angles of a ?,
? A + B + C = 180° .......................................... (1)
According to question,
A ? B = 15° ;
? A = B + 15°....................................................(2)
B ? C = 30°;
? B = C + 30°;...................................................(3)
Put the value of B from equation (2) in Equation (1), we will get
? A = B + 15°
A = C + 30° + 15°
A = C + 45° ........................................................(4)
From a equation,
? A + B + C = 180°
? (C + 45°) + (C + 30°) + C = 180°
? 3C + 45° + 30° = 180°
? 3C = 180° ? 75° = 105°
? C = 35° ..........................................................(5)
From equation (4)
A = C + 45°
Put the value of C from equation (5) , we will get
? ?A = 35° + 45° = 80°.
Draw a figure as per given question,
In a Right triangle ADC, Use the (Pythagoras Theorem)
AC = ?DC2 - AD2
? AC = ? 152 - 9 2
? AC = ? 225 - 81
? AC = ? 144
? AC = 12 cm
In a Right triangle BCE, Use the formula
CB = ? CD2 - BE2
? CB = ?15 2 - 122
? CB = ?225 - 144
? CB = ? 81
? CB = 9 m
? Width of the street (AC + BC) = AB = 12 + 9 = 21 m.
