Question

May I please get help with this problem? I have tried multiple times but I still couldn’t get the correct solution

Answer 1

The tower is 70 m tall

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we want to get the height of the tower

Completing the image-shadow representation, we would be having a right triangle

For this scenario, we would be having two right triangles

The image-shadow ratio of the pole equals the image-shadow ratio of the tower. Let the height of the tower be h

Mathematically:

`(2.6)/(1.8)\text{ = }(h)/(48.25)`
`\begin{gathered} 2.6*48.25\text{ = 1.8}* h \\ h\text{ = }(2.6*48.25)/(1.8) \\ h\text{ = 70 m} \end{gathered}`
