How can we use these tools on Windows environment?

You could use a Virtual Machine, but it comes with headaches and hacks that need to be done to boot. Just go buy a Mac Mini(cheap entry) and get to coding. XCode will not run on a windows machine natively.

Depending on the nature of your app, one of the cross-platform development tools like PhoneGap or Titanium might be appropriate. Xcode is a Mac-only app and will not run on Windows.

There is step by step tutorial how to setup it on virtual machine on most of windows machines.. http://ipodtoucher55.blogspot.de/2010/12/installing-ios-sdk-and-xcode-on-windows.html
