The cable makes a right triangle with the ground and the tower. You'd be using the Pythagorean theorem (a2+b2=c2) c is the cable (200') and use 80' as either a or b.
a2+802=2002
a2=2002-802
a2=40000-6400
a2=33600
a=183.3' rounded

Man, you should do your homework by yourself, that ain't so difficult!
Look:
_We know that the scale model of the Eiffel tower is 3'1 feet high
_The ratio is 1:318 which means that the real height of the tower as compared to the scale model is 318 times higher.
Hence:
The height of the tower = Scale model height x 318
Height = 3'1 x 318
Height = 985.8 feet
Which spirit is traditionally used to make a Tom Collins cocktail?
What spirit is traditionally used to make a Tom Collins cocktail? The short answer is gin, but let me elaborate a little. The common mix is 3 parts gin, 2 parts fresh lemon juice, a part sugar syrup, and 4 parts carbonated water. The liquid may be poured over ice, with a lemon slice and a maraschino cherry added as a garnish. A tall straight glass is usually use for serving. It is believed to have been invented by a bartender John Collins at Limmers, a London Hotel. It is likely that the brand of gin originally called for in the recipe, Old Tom gin, may have encouraged the name Tom in the drink name Tom Collins. A recipe appeared in the 1876 edition of the Jerry Thomas book Bart Tenders Guide. The last name Collins and a first other name has been used to indicate drinks with other key components, such as tequila in a Jose Collins and Scotch whiskey in a Sandy Collins.
