The tower is 61.65 meters tall.

SOLUTION:

Given that, a pole that is 2.5 m tall casts a shadow that is 1.47 m long.

At the same time, a nearby tower casts a shadow that is 36.25 m long.

We have to find height of the tower.

Now, we know that,

$2.5 \mathrm{m} \text { tall } \rightarrow 1.47 \text { long shadow }$

Then, (let it be) n meter tall $\rightarrow$ 36.25 long shadow

So, by cross multiplication method,

$\Rightarrow \frac{2.5}{1.47}=\frac{n}{36.25}$

This can be written as,

$\Rightarrow 36.25 \times 2.5=1.47 \times n \rightarrow 1.47 n=90.625 \rightarrow n=61.649 \rightarrow n=61.65 \text{ m}$

Cross multiplications steps: (To find Single Variable)

Multiply the numerator of the left-hand fraction by the denominator of the right-hand fraction.
Multiply the numerator of the right-hand fraction by the denominator of the left-hand fraction.
Set the two products equal to each other.
Solve for the variable.

Step-by-step explanation:

8x-9=5x-3

Move any equation to the opposite side. I'll use the left this time

$8x - 8x - 9 + 9 = 5x - 8x - 3 + 9$
