B & C since both of them are like triangle figures.
ANSWER
The maximum value is 625
EXPLANATION
The height of the stick that the bird dropped is modeled by the function;

This function is already in the vertex form.
Let me rewrite it clearly for you to see.

When we compare this to;

we have h=0 and k=625.
k=625 is the y-value of the vertex.
This is the maximum value on the graph of this function.
$75.68
If you do the math correctly, this is the right answer.
Hope this helps!☺️
The vertical distance can be found by subtracting parabola from the given line.
Given line equation is y= x+20
Equation of parabola is y= x^2
Subtract parabola from line equation
so y = 
y = 
Now we take derivative to find out the maximum that is the vertex
y' = -2x + 1
Now we set derivative =0 and solve for x
0 = -2x+1
2x = 1

Now we plug in x values in 

Take common denominator

So our maximum vertical distance is
at
