Drawing (not to scale):
\n" ); document.write( " The camera is at C, lined up with smokestack AB and the tower (red), all on the vertical plane of the drawing.
\n" ); document.write( "Triangles ABC and DEC are similar (same angle measures, proportional side lengths, ABC is a scaled down version of DEC).
\n" ); document.write( "So \"x%2F440=330%2F%28440%2B3200%29\" --> \"x%2F440=330%2F3640\" --> \"x=330%2A440%2F3640\" --> \"highlight%28x=40%29\" (rounded)
\n" ); document.write( "The smokestack's height is approximately \"highlight%2840meters%29\"
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
