Point C is due east of B and 300 m distance apart. A tower not in line with B and C was observed at B and C having vertical angles of 45° and 60° respectively. The same tower was observed at point D, 500 m West of B. The vertical angle of the same tower as observed from D is 30°. Find the distance of C from the tower.

Parking regulations of a municipality require that each parking space be 3 m wide and 7 m long. Parking along a city block measuring 100 m can be set up for parallel or angle parking.

I think that the book may have made a mistake)
