Answer:
It is important because it allows you to calculate the surface area of a trapezoidal prism
Step-by-step explanation:

Let the women's height be AE and distance between the women and tower be AC.
Also let the height of tower be BC.
Now, clearly it is forming a triangle.
So, in triangle ABC,








Hence, BC = 59.5m
So, BD(total height of the tower)


Therefore, total height of the tower =

15 = 0.23x
x = 65.2
therefore 15 is 23% of 65.2
Let the curve C be the intersection of the cylinder
and the plane
The projection of C on to the x-y plane is the ellipse
To see clearly that this is an ellipse, le us divide through by 16, to get
or
,
We can write the following parametric equations,
for
Since C lies on the plane,
it must satisfy its equation.
Let us make z the subject first,
This implies that,
We can now write the vector equation of C, to obtain,
The length of the curve of the intersection of the cylinder and the plane is now given by,
But
Therefore the length of the curve of the intersection intersection of the cylinder and the plane is 24.0878 units correct to four decimal places.
Choice A is false because they are rounding to the nearest tenth (one decimal place) and not nearest hundredth (two decimal places)
Choice B is false as well because 3.825 should round to 3.83. The 5 at the end tells you to round up.
Choice C is false too. The value 3.824 should round to 3.82. Not sure how they got 3.81, so it seems like a deliberate trick question or silly answer.
Choice D is true. The three decimal values are rounded properly to the correct number of decimal places.
Therefore choice D is the answer
