Problem 8

Two observers are located at points CC and DD, which are 3 km3~\(\text{km}\) apart, along a straight line. They simultaneously measure the angle of elevation of a drone flying above the line segment CDCD. Observer CC measures an angle of elevation to be 3030^{\(\circ\)}, while observer DD measures an angle of elevation to be 6060^{\(\circ\)}. Assuming that the drone is directly above the line segment between CC and DD, what will be the height of the drone located above the ground?
