20. Varanasi is a city of temples, including the gold-plated Vishwanath temple of Lord Shiva; the
Bharat Mata, or Mother India, temple that boasts a huge three dimensional relief map of the
Indian subcontinent carved out of marble; and the hundreds of small temples that dot the
waterways and alleys. It is a city of scholars, home to one of Asia's largest universities. It is also
a city of legends. The figure below shows one such temple along the banks of the sacred river
"Ganges" or "Ganga". A person sitting at point marked A looks at the top of a nearby temple and
imagines that a right angled triangle ABC can be drawn as shown in the figure below,
Based on the above information, answer the following questions. (Take
