Points AA and BB are 10001000 m apart on level ground. A mountain peak TT stands directly above a point HH on the same level ground. Surveyors measure the horizontal angles ∠HAB=30∘\angle HAB = 30^\circ and ∠HBA=105∘\angle HBA = 105^\circ, and from BB the angle of elevation of the peak is 60∘60^\circ. Find the height THTH of the peak above the ground, in metres, in simplest radical form.
