Answer:

x ≈ 2.7 m

Explanation:

since the 2 triangles are similar then the ratios of corresponding sides are in proportion, that is


(x)/(1.6) =
(4)/(2.4) ( cross- multiply )

2.4x = 4 × 1.6 = 6.4 ( divide both sides by 2.4 )

x =
(6.4)/(2.4) = 2.6666...

height of statue x ≈ 2.7 m ( to 1 decimal place )
