Use similar triangles
distance of man from puddle = 0.5 m.
distance of puddle from tower = 13 - 0.5 = 12.5 meters
so we have 2 similar triangles
one has height 2 m and base 0.5 m and the other has height x m ( the tower) and base 12.5 m
Corresponding sides are in the same ratio, so
2 / x = 0.5 / 12.5
0.5x = 2*12.5 = 25
x = 25 / 0.5 = 50 m
The tower is approx 50 m high.
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
Using cross- products, that is
= 
then ad = bc
Given the ratios
and 
Then equating and using cross- products
If both sides equate then the ratios are equivalent
= , then
4 × 21 = 6 × 14 ⇒ 84 = 84
Both sides are equal thus the ratios are equivalent
Answer:
-7
Step-by-step explanation:
8x - 2 = 7x - 9
8x - 2 - 7x = 7x - 9 - 7x
x - 2 = -9
x - 2 + 2 = -9 + 2
x = -7
Cylinder A can hold 6902.08 ft^3
Cylinder B can hold 5654.87 ft^3
6902.08 - 5654.87 = 1247.21
The amount that will be left over in container A is 1247.21
