Let height of balloon from ground = h m
Length of cable {tex}= 215 m{/tex}
In {tex}\Delta ABC{/tex}
{tex}\sin {60^o} = \frac{{AB}}{{AC}}{/tex}
{tex} \Rightarrow \frac{{\sqrt 3 }}{2} = \frac{h}{{215}}{/tex}
{tex} \Rightarrow h = \frac{{215\sqrt 3 }}{2}{/tex}
{tex} \Rightarrow h = \frac{{215 \times 1.73}}{2} = 185.9{/tex}
