Question

Show the complete solution and box the answer. Thank you. 1.)A truck hauling cylindrical steel tank has to pass under an overhead parabolic arch bridge which has a span of 24 meters and is 20 meters high. If the tank is 16 meters and is placed in the truck with its sides vertical, and the top of the tank is 10 meters above the street level, what is the smallest clearance from the top of the tank so that the truck can pass under the bridge?
