Introduction to Trignometry & its Equation

The lower window of a house is at a height of 2 m above the ground and its upper window is 4 m vertically above the lower window. At certain instant the angles of elevation  of  a  balloon  from  these  windows  are  observed  to  be  60o and  30o, respectively. Find the height of the balloon above the ground.
