 \textbf {Hey there, here is the solution.}

.............................................................................................

 \dfrac{\text {object 1}}{\text {object 2}}  = \dfrac{\text {shadow 1}}{\text {shadow 2}}

.

STEP 1: Form equation:

Let the height of the telephone pole be x.

 \dfrac{\text {x}}{\text {38}}  = \dfrac{\text {29}}{\text {78}}

.............................................................................................

STEP 2: Solve x:

 \dfrac{\text {x}}{\text {38}}  = \dfrac{\text {29}}{\text {78}}

Cross multiply:

 78x = 29 \times 38

Evaluate RHS:

 78x =1102

Divide both sides by 78:

 x = 14.1 \text { cm}

.............................................................................................

Answer: The height of the telephone pole is (c} 14.1 cm.
