Estimate the height of the building shown in the following figure by the method of triangulation. The person is standing 5 meters from a pole, which is 15 meters from the building. The person's vision perceives the top of the pole aligned with the top of the building The person is approximately 1.75 meters and the pole is approximately 3.5 meters. m 15 m b) Estimate the volume and mass of water that exists in a lake. The shape of the lake is approximately circular, it is almost 500 meters in diameter and is supposed to have a average depth of 20.0 meters. Remember that the density of water is equal to 1000 Kg / m3 d= 500m h = 20.0m
