In this equation, we are solving for f. The first thing we have to do is get rid of the denominator, so we have to multiply both sides by 9, which leaves us with 9C=5*(f-32). Then we divide both sides by 5, which is 9/5C=f-32. The last thing we have to do is add 32 to both sides to isolate f, which gives us our final equation of (5/9)C+32=f.

Step-by-step answer:
The first step in solving a problem of geometry and trigonometry is to draw a diagram, with all the given information in it. The attached image does just that.
Here, we have (horizontal) distance of building to the tower is 400'.
We see two right triangles, each with a leg of 400' (horizontal).
The vertical distances are denoted h1 and h2 for the angles of elevation 24 and 20 degrees respectively.
Using the definition of tangent, we have
h1= 400tan24=178.1
h2=400tan20=145.6
The height of the tower is therefore h1+h2=178.1+145.6=323.7 feet
