Step-by-step explanation:

The complete question in English is

Find the height of the tower with the data provided by the engineering team. Value of the segment ab= 50 m. The length between the child and the tip of the tower is 250 m

The picture in the attached figure

we know that

In the right triangle ABC

Applying the Pythagorean Theorem

[tex]AC^2=AB^2+BC^2[/tex]

we have

[tex]AB=50\ m\\AC=250\ m[/tex]

substitute

[tex]250^2=50^2+BC^2[/tex]

[tex]BC^2=250^2-50^2[/tex]

[tex]BC^2=60,000\\BC=245\ m[/tex]
