I have no idea how to go about this question on my geometry homework! Can someone help me?
The two triangles shown are similar triangles. 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)

What is the best metric unit to measure the amount of water in a water tower?
Since water towers generally have a very large capacity, I would say that cubic meters might be the best bet. You can measure the total volumetric capacity of the water tower in cubic meters and then determine the volume of water that is currently in the water tower. However, an amount of water can also be measured in liters.
