Answer:

555 meters

Explanation:

toymaker = height/shadow

= 0.9/0.2

CN tower = height/shadow

= x/123.3

solve for x:

;
(0.9)/(0.2) = (x)/(123.3) \\\\0.2(x) = (0.9)(123.3)\\0.2x = 110.97\\((10)/(2) )(2)/(10)x = 110.97((10)/(2))\\ x = 554.85

They are all in meters, so we don't need to convert anything so rounded to the nearest meter, the answer is 555 meters

Answer: 555 m

Explanation:

We will set up a proportion to solve.


\displaystyle \frac{\text{vertical side}}{\text{horizontal side}} \;\;\;\;\;\;\;(0.9\;m)/(0.2\;m) =(x\;m)/(123.3 \;m)

Now we will cross multiply.

0.9 * 123.3 = 0.2 * x

110.97 = 0.2x

554.85 = x

x = 554.85

Lastly, we will round the nearest m.

554.85 ➜ 555 m
