A contractor was awarded to construct a vertical pillar at a horizontal distance of 100m from fixed point. It was decided that the angle of elevation of the complete pillar from this point was to be 60∘60^\circ. Contractor finished his job by making the pillar such that the angle of elevation of its top was 45∘45^\circ. Find the height of the pillar to be increased as per the terms of contract.
