A robot holds an upright measuring stick that is 8.00 cm in length and a distance of 20.0 cm from
its face. The robot is a distance of 15.0 m from the projection of the top of the lamp post onto the
ground. The robot's eye level height is 1.80 m. Use this information to determine the height of
the lamp post, filling in the table below with the proper quantities measure in meters.
