Here as per question the height of wall is 8ft
so , i draw the above diagram as per question requirement
Let x be the distance of CD, then DO will be 8-x
Now, In ΔCDB,CD=x,BD is the base ,
so, tanθ=BDCD,
tan(12.5o)=BDx
BD=.2217x ........................1
similarly , In ΔBDO
tan(33.7o)=BD8−x
BD= .66698−x .......................2
From equation 1 and 2 we can write
.2217x=.66698−x
.6669x=1.7736−.2217x
.0.8907x=1.7736
x=1.99ft
so just we put this value in equation 1 we get
BD = 8.98ft
so ,the dustance of fly from wall is 8.98 ft we can take it approx as 9ft
