Answer:
height of vertical post = 6ft
its shadow = 20 in
For all shadows cast at the same time, the ratio of the height of a shadow-casting structure to the length of its shadow is the same. (Assuming, of course, that it's the sun casting the shadows.)
So the ratio is
4 feet / 12 inches = 4 feet / 1 foot = 4/1 = 4,
and if h is the height of the cell tower,
h/122 feet = 4
h = 4 x 122 feet = 488 feet. <---------------- Final answer

Answer:
a² = b² -w² +2wx
Step-by-step explanation:
The algebra is pretty straightforward. Expand the expression in parentheses and add x².
b² -(w -x)² = e² = a² -x²
b² -(w² -2wx +x²) = a² -x² . . . . . expand the square
b² -w² +2wx -x² = a² -x² . . . . . . distribute the minus sign
b² -w² +2wx = a² . . . . . . . . . . . . add x²
