The ratio of a rod and its shadow is1 1 root 3 what is its angle of elevation?

To find the angle of elevation of a rod given the ratio of its height to the length of its shadow as (1 : \sqrt{3}), we can use the tangent function. The tangent of the angle of elevation ( \theta ) is equal to the ratio of the opposite side (height of the rod) to the adjacent side (length of the shadow). Therefore, ( \tan(\theta) = \frac{1}{\sqrt{3}} ). This corresponds to an angle of ( 30^\circ ).
