A pole that is 2.5 M tall cast a shadow that is 1.72M lawn dart at the same time a nearby tower cast a shadow that is 50.5 M long how tall is the tower round answer to the nearest meter

The tower is 73.4 m tall

Step-by-step explanation:

The height of the pole = 2.5 m

The shadow cast by the pole = 1.72 m

Shadow cast by tower = 50.5 m

To find the height of the tower, we proceed by finding the angle of elevation, θ, of the light source casting the shadows as follows;

The same tanθ gives;

Which gives;

step-by-step explanation:

use pothagarean therom

a^2+b^2=c^2 so first ac

acm is a right triangle because c= 90°

and am (the hypotenuse or c) =16+9 =25

but there is not enough info we need another angle or side length
