Answer:
yes
Step-by-step explanation:
The tower is about 50.1 meters tall. The guidebook is correct.
__
The distance from the base of the tower to the angle vertex is ...
d1 = h/tan(46°)
d2 = d1 +50 = h/tan(27°)
Then the height of the tower is ...
h/tan(46°) +50 = h/tan(27°)
50 = h(cot(27°) - cot(46°))
h = 50/(cot(27°) -cot(46°)) ≈ 50/(1.96261 -0.96569) ≈ 50/0.99692
h ≈ 50.1544 . . . meters
The tower is more than 50 meters high.
