Let the height of the first tower be x, then the second tower is (160 - x) m taller than the first tower. Then
tan 30 = (160 - x)/80
160 - x = 80 tan 30
x = 160 - 80 tan 30 = 160 - 46.19 = 113.8 m

Therefore, the height of the first tower is 113.8 m.

A pyramid has a base area of 44cm and a height of 12.6 cm what is the volume of the pyramid ?
aliya0001 [1]

Answer:

184.8 cubic cm

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for the volume of a pyramid is

V = (1/3)(B)(h)      where B is the area of the base, and h is the height

We are given B = 44 cm² andh = 12.6cm  

Plug them into the formula and simplify...(I'm assuming you are allowed to use a calculator for these problems)

V = (1/3)(44cm²)(12.6cm)

<h2>     V = 184.8 cm³  or 184.8 cubic cm</h2><h2 />
