Using proportions, considering the relation between the height and the shadow, it is found that the cell phone tower is 50 feet.
<h3>What is a proportion?</h3>
A proportion is a fraction of a total amount, and the measures are related using a rule of three.
When the shadow is of 8 feet, the height is of 10 feet. What is the height when the shadow is of 40 feet? The<em> rule of three</em> is:
8 feet - 10 feet
40 feet - h feet
Applying cross multiplication:
8h = 10 x 40
Simplifying by 8:
h = 10 x 5 = 50 feet.
