The angle of elevation of the top of a tower from a point A is 55degrees30’. From another point B, the angle of elevation of the top of the tower is 23degrees30’, which is directly west of A. The points A and B are 117.45 m apart and on the same horizontal plane as the foot of the tower. Find the height of the tower.
