Answer 1

Height is 24 metres. plz mark it

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

let,

in ∆ABC,

Ac = 26 , BC = 10

ANGLE. ABC IS 90°

AC*2 = AB*2 + BC *2

26*2 = AB*2 + 10*2

AB*2 = 26*2 - 10*2

AB*2 = 676 - 100

AB*2 = 576

taking square root from both sides,

AB = 24m

the night of a

building is 24 m
