Answer:

132m

Step-by-step explanation:

Height of tower B = Height of tower A + difference in height between tower B and A

The difference in height can be determined using tan

tan 23 = opposite / adjacent

tan 23 = opposite / 151

0.4245 x 151 = opposite

opposite = 64m

Height of tower B =  64m + 68m = 132m
