Given that the time is the same we will also assume that the magnification is the same.
The formula to obtain this is :
Image height of the pole / height of the pole = Image height of the tower/ height of the tower
Let the height of the tower be h .
Doing the substitution we have :
3.2/69 = 18/h
we need h.
3.2h = 1242
h = 1242/3.2 = 388.125 m
