Step-by-step explanation:
Length of a wire=17m
height of the base of the tower till the bottom of the wire= 15m
(We know that the height of the bottom end of the wire + the length of the wire is the total height of the tower because the wire is attached to the top of the tower)
Therefore, 17m+15m = 32m
Thus the height of the tower is 32m
