How can the dba be alerted on 90% completion of transaaction log. so that tranaction log file can be truncated before showing up any errors(transactionlog file full).

Take a look at the Alerts section underneath the SQL Server Agent section in Enterprise Manager. You should see a demo alert called "Demo: Full msdb log". Now use that alert as an example of how to do it and create a new one. You will either need to also setup an operator so that the alert can notify someone when the threshold is passed. Or you could also create a job that will be executed when the threshold is passed. Please see Books Online for all of the specifics.
