AB is a tower. D and Care two points on the same side of a tower, BD = a and BC = b.

 

 

∠ADB and ∠ACB are the complementary angles.

 

If ∠ADB = x, then ∠ACB = 90 – x

 

In ∆ADB,

 

 

………… (1)

 

In ∆ABC,

 

 

…………....(2)

 

Multiplying (1) and (2),

 

 

 

(AB)2 = ab

 

AB = √ab

 

Height of tower = AB = √ab

 

Hence proved.
