Answer:
Therefore the height of the tower is 116.75 m.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that a pole that is 2.6 m tall casts a shadow that is 1.03 m long.
Here the height of a object directly proportional to the shadow. It means
Height of the object ∝ shadow
Height of the object= k.shadow
[k is the proportional constant.]
[Height of object is denoted by h and shadow is denoted by s]
Then,
[h₁ is the height of the pole and s₁is the length of the shadow]
Again for the tower
[h₂ is the height of the tower and s₂ is the length of the shadow]
Therefore,
............(1)
Given ,
and
Putting the value of and
equation (1)
[cross multiplication]
Therefore the height of the tower is 116.75 m.
