Consider a triangular plot $ABC$ with sides $AB = 7 \ m$,$BC = 5 \ m$,and $CA = 6 \ m$. $A$ vertical lamp-post at the midpoint $D$ of $AC$ subtends an angle $30^o$ at $B$. The height (in $m$) of the lamp-post is

  • A
    $\frac{3}{2} \sqrt{21}$
  • B
    $\frac{2}{3} \sqrt{21}$
  • C
    $2 \sqrt{7}$
  • D
    $\frac{\sqrt{21}}{3}$
