Answer:
The cellphone towers height is 1020 ft.
Step-by-step explanation:
This question is solved using proportions, by a rule of three.
A 10-ft post casts a 14-inch shadow.
Each feet has 12 inches, which means that a post with 10 feet will cast a 14/12 = 1.167 ft shadow. How tall is the cell-phone tower with a 119-feet shadow?
10 feet post - 1.167 ft shadow
x feet tower - 119 feet shadow
Applying cross multiplication:
The cellphone towers height is 1020 ft.
