I have no idea how to go about this question on my geometry homework! Can someone help me?

Numerically, the ratio computed by dividing the length of any side of tower triangle by the length of the corresponding side of the walking stick (similar) triangle will be the same value. Therefore, when the length of the tower shadow is divided by the length of the walking stick shadow, that ratio will be the exactly same as the tower height divided by the walking stick height. (length of tower shadow)/(length of walking stick shadow) = (tower's height)/(walking stick height) tower's height = {(length of tower shadow)/(length of walking stick shadow)}*(walking stick height)

You should always ask a law enforcement officer before you act in any way. The following answers are only in respects of SELF DEFENSE... it is never okay to assault someone. If it is a walking cane with a hidden weapon (knife or sword) inside, then you must check your state's concealed weapons laws. However, if you are just looking for a standard walking aid, then you could probably beat your assailant to smitherrines the same way a woman can with her purse, or you could with an umbrella.
