A section line AB 300m long on a flat terrain measure 102.4mm on the vertical photograph. A radio tower also appears in the photograph. The distance measured from the principal points to the image of the bottom and the top of the radio tower was found to be 7cm and 8cm respectively. The average elevation of the terrain was 553m. Determine the height of the tower. Take f = 152.4mm.
