See the attached figure to better understand the problem

we know that

in the triangle ABC
tan 15=AC/BC--------> AC=BC*tan 15
BC=51 m
AC=51*tan 15------> AC=13.67 m

t<span>he height of the shorter building=207-AC----> 207-13.67----> 193.33 m
</span>the height of the shorter building=193 m
<span>
the answer Part a) is
</span>the height of the shorter building is 193 m
<span>
Part b) </span><span>how does the angle of depression from the top of the taller building relate to the angle of elevation from the top of the shorter building
</span>
we know that

the angle of depression is equals to the angle of elevation
so

the answers are
<span>A:They are congruent
</span><span>D:They are alternate interior angles</span>

56 is 80 percent of what number
monitta
Let us assume the number to be = x
Then
(80/100) * x = 56
4x/5 = 56
4x = 56 * 5
4x = 280
x = 280/4
  = 70
The value of the unknown number is 70. I hope the procedure is clear enough for you to understand. You can always use this method for solving similar problems in future without requiring any help from outside. Only thing that needs to be taken care of is the calculation part.
